In September, the High Council of Justice (HCJ) issued a disciplinary reprimand to Nataliia Volodymyrivna Abbasova, a judge of the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv. The primary reason was the gross violation of established deadlines for drafting full texts of court decisions. In addition to the reprimand, the judge was deprived of the right to receive additional payments to her salary for one month.
The delays were of a critical nature. In one case concerning the determination of a child's place of residence, the delay amounted to 951 days. In another case, number 761/22000/24, in which LLC "Rent-Profit Plus" was one of the participants, the delay was 311 days.
A separate anomaly was a decision dated 22 January 2024, in which Nataliia Abbasova referred to a ruling of the Supreme Court dated 14 February 2024. This means that the judge cited legal practice that appeared only 23 days after the date of her own decision.
On 7 October, the HCJ initiated new disciplinary proceedings against Abbasova based on complaints from Leonid Benkovskyi. This is a separate case not related to the proceedings for which the judge has already been punished.
Nataliia Abbasova obtained a higher education in 2005, graduating from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv with a degree in "Law". Before being appointed as a judge, she worked as a judge's assistant: first at the Kyiv Appellate Commercial Court, and later at the Commercial Court of Cassation within the Supreme Court (approximately until September 2020).
Abbasova submitted documents for the competitive selection proceedings in 2017. In 2019, she took seventh place among eight candidates for a vacant position at the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv. Despite this result, the High Qualification Commission of Judges of Ukraine (HQCU) recommended her for appointment. The Presidential Decree on her appointment was signed on 5 August 2020, and the judge took the oath on 15 December of the same year.
According to the declaration for 2025, submitted on 31 March 2026, Nataliia Abbasova's salary was 1,211,891 hryvnias. Official income over the last five years has remained stable at approximately 1.1–1.2 million UAH annually.
The most expensive item of movable property is a Tesla Model Y (2021 model year) worth 702,000 UAH. Ownership of this car was registered on 16 July 2025. However, the judge provided a notification of significant changes in her property status only on 31 March 2026. This delay amounts to 258 days, whereas the legally established deadline is 10 days (the threshold value for 2025 was 151,400 UAH).
The family also owns a Honda Accord (2017 model year), purchased in July 2021 for 289,000 UAH. This car belongs to the judge's husband, Rustam Abbasov. Previously, a 2008 Suzuki Swift appeared in the declarations, which later disappeared from the list of assets.
The structure of real estate remained almost unchanged over several years. Nataliia Abbasova owns a house with an area of 57.2 sq. m and a land plot of 2,508 sq. m in the village of Trebukhiv, Kyiv region. The declared value of these objects is 80,000 and 12,000 UAH, respectively. The judge's husband owns 3.2 hectares of land in Cherkasy region.
Different declarations indicate contradictory dates of acquisition of ownership rights to the same objects. For example, for the house in the village of Trebukhiv, different dates are recorded: 16 December 2014 and 5 May 2015.
The dynamics of monetary assets also raise questions. In 2019, Abbasova declared 100,000 UAH in cash, in 2020–2022 — 200,000 UAH each year, in 2023 — 300,000 UAH, and in 2024 — 400,000 UAH. In the declaration for 2025, the "Monetary Assets" section was empty, indicating the disappearance of previously declared savings.
Thus, there are at least three key questions regarding the judge's declarations: the reasons for changing the dates of acquisition of the same real estate, the disappearance of previously declared monetary assets, and the significant delay in reporting the purchase of the Tesla Model Y.
