Struggle for Seal in Ukrainian Court

Olexandr Pasenyuk and Mykola Syrosh, top officials of the Supreme Administrative Court of Ukraine (SACU), are at odds over leadership of the court. Pasenyuk's term as the SACU Head expired on 22 December 2009. His First Deputy Syrosh issued an order appointing himself as the Acting SACU Head. Pasenyuk cancelled the order and declared that he is the Acting Head. The SACU Presidium and the Ministry of Justice recognize Pasenyuk as the Acting Head, while the Council of Judges found Syrosh’s actions legitimate. Syrosh stated that the official seal of SACU had been lost, but Pasenyuk displayed the seal and told journalists that it is kept in a safe place. The SACU is responsible for resolving disputes related to the upcoming presidential elections.
