Summons must be handed in personally so that the person liable for military service can confirm the fact of receipt by signing on it.
Under the current state of martial law in Ukraine and general mobilization, the question arises of how the subpoenas are served. Lawyer Konstantin Gritchin clarifies the possibility of receiving a summons by phone or via SMS, writes Telegraph.
According to Gritchin, in Ukraine, summonses must be handed over exclusively in person, since a person liable for military service must confirm the fact of receipt by signing on it.
The expert notes that if the summons is left via SMS or informed of its delivery by phone, then it is impossible to draw up an act of refusal to receive the summons.
“A summons left in a mailbox, transmitted by phone or through relatives, is not considered delivered on time and has no legal force. In this case, refusal to appear on such a summons will not have legal consequences,” the lawyer explains.
The expert emphasizes that a person liable for military service has the right not to appear at the military registration and enlistment office until the summons is served to him in an appropriate way.
Recall that from June 1, stricter rules for mobilization come into force in Ukraine, said the head of the territorial center for recruiting and social support of the city of Buryn Sergey Pavlov.
In addition to this, it is worth noting that on May 26, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, signed two laws that are aimed at simplifying the procedure for military personnel to pass medical commissions and receive medical documentation.
