With assistance from GYLA’s Kutaisi branch, the Suprme Court considered the head of Khoni local council G.G. innocent and delivered an acquittal.

 

G.G. was accused of abuse of official duties. Namely, according to the resolution of conviction, he abused official duties in violation of public interests and thus inflicted to the state material damage in the amount of GEL 10200. It should be noted that the first instance court had already delivered an acquittal on the case, which was later annulled by the Appellate Court and G.G. was considered guilty in submitted charges.

 

The Supreme Court upheld the position of the defense and considered that examined evidences were insufficient for proving submitted charges and for meeting the standard beyond the reasonable doubt.  Accordingly, the Supreme Court satisfied G.G.’s and his lawyer’s cassation and annulled the November 7, 2013 decision of Criminal Chamber of Kutaisi Appellate Court. As a result, G.G. was recognized innocent.

  

 

On June 10, 2014 Rustavi City Court satisfied application of the victim of domestic violence M.K on issuing protective order. The lawyer from GYLA’s Rustavi office represented her interests in a court. At the trial the facts of G.M.’s violence were confirmed against his ex-wife M.K. and child A.M. Rustavi City Court made decision on issuing protective order against the offender and he was prohibited to inflict verbal, physical and psychological violence on the victims. In addition, he was prohibited to approach their house and to have phone communication with them. Protective order was issued for three months’ term.

 

GYLA’s Ozurgeti office represented in the court D.T.’s interests who sold at the New Year Fair in Tbilisi Caucasus fir-trees produced in his plot of land. Immediately, upon request of the inspector of environmental supervision department D.T. submitted to him the certificate issued by the local envoy of Bakhvi community about origin of goods. Nevertheless, they confiscated D.T.’s fir-trees and the environment supervision department drafted protocol of administrative offence for transportation of plants without proper document issued by the local self-governing unit or in violation of stipulations envisaged by the government decree when the plants are produced on the territory of private ownership.

  

With assistance from a lawyer of GYLA’s Ozurgeti office, the case of administrative offence was terminated in Tbilisi City Court and according to evidences submitted in the case, the fact of committing administrative offence by D.T. was not confirmed.
