Court stops the use of 'typo corrections' to amend data in the 'Oberih' register by military administrations.

Ruling on the correction of typos

According to Novyny.live: The First Appellate Administrative Court has clarified that correcting a typo in a court ruling may not be used to add new information. In this specific case, it concerned the entry of data regarding the removal of a citizen from military registration in the 'Oberih' register – a process that ended up in court.

The background shows that the Administrative Court of Donetsk region granted a citizen's lawsuit against the Territorial Recruitment and Social Security Center (TZK and SP) in July 2025. In March 2026, the court ordered the agency to present a report on the execution of the ruling. It also imposed a fine of 66,560 Grivny against the head of the competent authority.

Legal classification and consequences

The court relies on Article 253 of the Administrative Court Procedure Code of Ukraine, which only allows the correction of technical errors, but not the addition of new data. The appeal was therefore dismissed, confirming the limited possibility of subsequently amending court decisions.

This case underscores the importance of adhering to procedural rules in jurisprudence – particularly in matters related to military service.

The jurisprudence on the correction of judgments can have far-reaching implications for individual citizens' rights and the actions of state authorities. The precedent established by this decision could influence future proceedings concerning the amendment or clarification of court rulings.
