At the beginning of the meeting, the lawyers noticed that they had warned the court about the good reasons for the failure to appear: Navalny’s lawyer Vadim Kobzev was busy in another court, and Peter Officer became ill, he was hospitalized with suspected pancreatitis.
Yesterday morning, Officer’s urgently and against his desire was discharged from the hospital. “They raised me at 6:40, said: everyone, uncle, you recovered,” the entrepreneur from the bench of the defendants said good -naturedly.
He never found out his diagnosis: "If now they will not go to the north now, I will go through an examination."
On Navalny and Officer, Judge Vthurin issued a drive, the bailiffs accompanied the politician on the plane and lived in the same hotel with him.
Smiling at the general surprise, Judge Vthurin asked the opinions of prosecutors about the measure of suppression.
“We are not ready,” the prosecutor muttered by surprise and asked for a break, but this did not help - returning, the prosecutors left the question at the discretion of the court.
Navalny insisted that he came to the court voluntarily: he bought a ticket even before the bailiffs appeared in the corruption fund. Davydov’s lawyer invited the court to make requests to the airline and Russian Railways to make sure that Navalny and officers bought tickets themselves and voluntarily, as well as an ambulance to make sure that on January 27 - just on the day of the first missed meeting, the officer really called the doctors.
“This is a direct evidence of the respect for the reason for the failure to appear Officer,” the lawyer explained. And the reservation of the hotel speaks in favor of the fact that the defendants are not going to hide, but want to prove their innocence in court, added Davydova.

Arguments did not impress the judge of Vtyurin, he refused to make requests.
“You will open: in which city the subscription, for how long, what restrictions ...” the lawyer Davydova stood.
- I made a question for consideration. If you do not have a proposal, then you are not available, ”Judge Vthurin objected coldly.
- What restrictions do I want to bear in relation to Officer? No. And I can’t talk about what I do not have enough information, ”the lawyer perplexed.
- I gave you the right to speak out. So I will listen to you and indicate.
The subscription about the non -departure from Kirov will not allow the accused to see the family, the lawyers also recalled the Tokyo rules that dictate to respect the right to the personal life of the defendant and his family.
“Officer has young children, and I have an election campaign, and I don’t know what requires more attention,” said Navalny. - I have the idea that this sudden subscription is connected with my plans on Saturday to open the headquarters in St. Petersburg. But on Friday we already have the last word, because of what to fence the garden? "
Nevertheless, the judge appointed Navalny and Officer's subscription about the loss of residence with the place of residence in the hotel-until February 10th.
“Have you watched“ Moscow does not believe in tears ”? There is a phrase: I respect, but I will not drink. So I will not sign it, ”said Navalny. - And who will pay? Here they will be evicted from there tomorrow, so what? And on the weekend what should I do? Will you drive me to museums? ""
The judge laughed: "On Friday we will decide."
Both defendants refused to subscribe, and Navalny said that he was planning to be at the opening of the headquarters of his campaign in St. Petersburg on Saturday.
At the same time, the process is coming to an end, and, according to the defendants, only a couple of meetings remained. Today, evidence of protection began. True, the lawyers Svetlana Davydova and Olga Mikhailova only managed to exclude part of the evidence from the case: they disputed the psychological-linguistic examination, which was not signed properly, and wiretapping telephone conversations of Navalny and Officer. Wirewords were conducted in the framework of the case against another person whose defendants were neither nor the other, and some of the records were generally made after the period established by the judge. Judge Vtyurin thought each petition of the defense, pause in the meeting, and then rejected.
“They need to pronounce the verdict as soon as possible to prevent my election campaign,” the defendant told reporters, who had already announced that he would be advanced to the presidency in the next election. “But we also want this to end as soon as possible, we also do not want to spend so much time in Kirov.” We understand that the verdict will be accusatory, but I have a full moral right to participate in the elections, because I have support for people. ”
