The Lviv District Administrative Court has ruled in favor of a conscript, declaring his mobilization for military service unlawful. The plaintiff is under 25 years old, yet he was conscripted as a military serviceman.
According to the ruling, which was published in the court register in November 2024, the conscript approached the court after being mobilized in May of this year. The plaintiff claims that the Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support (TCRSS) acted unlawfully, as he is not yet 25 years old, has never served in the military, and did not consent to contract service. The case documents indicate that the plaintiff was 21 years old at the time of mobilization.
The case was examined by Judge Zoryana Lun, who reviewed all the materials and arguments. She established that the plaintiff had been registered for military service since 2021. In May 2024, a note was made in his military ID regarding his conscription into the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The judge determined that the 21-year-old man was registered as a conscript, not a military serviceman. During the mobilization, his status was unlawfully changed from "conscript" to "military serviceman," which led the judge to grant the man's claim, overturning the corresponding order. The court's decision is still subject to appeal.
