The 'Apple' party failed to appeal the refusal to register its election list. The City Court of St. Petersburg rejected the party's lawsuit to restore the city-wide list for the Legislative Assembly, according to a correspondent of 'Paper'.
Consensus
- The Saint Petersburg City Court rejected Yabloko's appeal against the refusal to register its candidate list for the Legislative Assembly.
- The refusal was based on the financial officer's lack of proper authorization to sign the financial report.
- Yabloko claims the issue was a technical error caused by a notary.
- The Central Election Commission upheld the lower court's decision and did not restore Yabloko's registration.
- Yabloko intends to appeal the court's decision.
Points of divergence
- The Saint Petersburg election commission intentionally delayed notification to prevent Yabloko from making corrections, and other electoral unions were allowed to make changes. — kommersant
- The city election commission did not have an obligation to notify Yabloko immediately after discovering the issue, and the delay was not intentional but due to procedural timing. — tg_paperpaper_ru
- Yabloko had 14 candidates removed from single-mandate districts due to missing documents, and the court is currently reviewing appeals for four of them. — tg_paperpaper_ru
