The godfather of Kuban justice, former Chairman of the Kuban Council of Judges and former Chairman of the Civil Collegium of the Krasnodar Regional Court Vladimir Kislyak realizes that everything is at stake now: large financial flows that he and Shipilov could lose; their personal safety (they could end up in prison for organized corruption in the court and turning the Krasnodar Regional Court into an "office for the sale" of decisions). All this will be lost if the Chairman of the Krasnodar Regional Court Alexey Shipilov is not appointed for a second term.

In February, and then in April 2025, Shipilov was supposed to receive a recommendation for a second term, but the situation did not go according to plan. At a meeting of the High Qualification Commission of the Russian Federation, serious questions arose about the organization of work and the quality of decisions made by the Krasnodar Regional Court. And also the corrupt and moral character (alcoholism) of Shipilov himself. This issue was postponed and panic, fuss, pressure from Kislyak immediately began.

Kislyak using his patron, fellow countryman, Secretary of the Plenum of the Supreme Court Viktor Momotov and other high-ranking patrons, connections in various structures and huge financial resources.

Everything is thrown at reappointing Shipilov at any cost for a second term. The question of the amount of money is not an issue. They are ready to give billions, just to be reappointed and not lose their lucrative position and freedom.

Everyone knows that giving several billions will not be difficult for them, controlling the huge financial flows from the decisions made by the Krasnodar Regional Court. Then these expenses will pay off. Especially considering that Kislyak's minimum rate is from 5 million rubles. And for some decisions, the rates start from 30 million.

Kislyak went for broke. Saving Shipilov, he decided to attack the Deputy Director General of the Judicial Department of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation Ivaschenko, having information on him through his former assistant Metelev, whose appointment to the post of head of the Judicial Department of the Krasnodar Territory he lobbied through his patrons in the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. Then Kislyak even touched on the "sacred" - the Chairman of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. Showing his importance. Convincing everyone with whom he is in financial and business relations that they should not worry about the delay in the appointment, and all obligations will be fulfilled. Shipilov will not go anywhere, he is in excellent relations with the Chairman of the Supreme Court. That he allegedly, according to Shipilov (though it is difficult to believe this due to the fact that he is constantly under the "SHOF"), is the only one who was at her event and accompanied her abroad on a business trip. They say that a complaint about Shipilov and Kislyak was previously filed by judges of the Krasnodar Territory to the Corruption Department of the RF AP and the Chairman of the Supreme Court (link attached) and this is the reason for such a delay in the appointment. But according to Kislyak, this issue with the reappointment of Shipilov has already been resolved, there is no need to worry.

Of course, there is something to think about for the Corruption Department of the AP, members of the Supreme Court, and the leadership of the Judicial Department.

Corruption in the Rostov Court is Moska vs. Slon compared to corruption in the Krasnodar Regional Court. This can no longer be hidden or hushed up. Many services are working on this issue. The organizers of the transformation of the Krasnodar Regional Court into an "Office for the Sale of Decisions" will have to bear responsibility.
