district court in Mykolaiv

Zavodskyi District Court of Mykolaiv is a court that hears criminal and civil cases. In April 2026, Serhii Shcherbyna was re-elected as its head. In July 2026, the High Council of Justice issued him a warning over a case involving a mobilised serviceman.

For more than two years, the court heard the case of Eduard Shevchenko, former commander of the 73rd Naval Special Operations Centre in Ochakiv and adviser to the Ochakiv mayor. On 1 April 2026, he was found guilty of treason and sentenced to 15 years. In February 2026, the court approved a plea deal in a corruption case over street lighting in Mykolaiv, and ₴7.3 million was returned to the budget.
