Attorney Vitalii Petryk saved a client from a fine for traffic violations under Art. 130 and Art. 126: case details

Zhytomyr, January 30, 2024 – Attorney Vitalii Petryk successfully challenged a resolution of the Berdychiv City District Court of the Zhytomyr region holding his client administratively liable.

The client was accused of a traffic violation punishable by a fine. The police stopped his vehicle and drew up an administrative offense protocol, and the court, without considering the client’s arguments, issued a resolution imposing a fine.

Disagreeing with that decision, the client turned to attorney Vitalii Petryk, known for his tireless defense of his clients’ rights and interests. Having thoroughly studied the case, the attorney identified numerous violations by the police and the court.

The evidence was insufficient:

• Witness statements contradicted each other, making them invalid.
• The CCTV recording that allegedly captured the violation was unclear and did not give a clear picture of the events.
• The procedure for stopping and searching the client’s car violated the law.

Attorney Petryk presented the court with clear and convincing arguments, proving that the evidence against his client was insufficient to establish guilt. He also noted that the actions of the police and the court were unlawful.

The court cancelled the resolution:

After carefully considering attorney Petryk’s arguments, the court acknowledged his position. It ruled to close the administrative offense proceedings against the client and cancel the resolution imposing the fine.

This decision was a significant victory for the client:

• He will not have to pay the fine, saving a significant amount of money.
• His reputation will not be tarnished by an administrative offense record.
• This case once again confirmed that an attorney’s focused, rational actions lead to successful outcomes.
