The SC explained the protection of payments to participants of the special operation from write-offs for debts

Payments to participants in a special military operation cannot be recovered for ordinary debts, and veterans of hostilities are entitled to priority rent of garden and vegetable plots. This is stated in the review of judicial practice, which was approved by the Presidium of the Supreme Court chaired by Igor Krasnov, reports Rg.ru.

According to the document, bailiffs cannot write off money paid to military personnel in connection with participation in a special operation. The exception is cases of recovery of alimony, compensation for harm to life or health, as well as debts associated with corruption violations.

Separately, the Supreme Court clarified the rules for granting land. Veterans of hostilities have the right to rent garden and vegetable plots outside the general queue. Free land ownership is regulated by regional laws. The authorities must respect the established priorities and avoid undue delays.

The court also pointed out that relatives of the deceased participant of the special operation should not be denied the receipt of land at the former place of residence of the soldier only because at the time of death he was registered at the place of service.

The review also covered tax benefits. In particular, the benefits on transport, land taxes and property tax for veterans of hostilities apply to periods starting from 2022.

Another explanation concerns the relatives of those who died. Sons and brothers of servicemen who died in the performance of combat tasks are exempt from conscription.

In addition, the Supreme Court determined the procedure for reimbursement of expenses for the burial of dead soldiers. According to the document, such expenses are compensated at the expense of the Ministry of Defense.

On May 13, the State Duma in the third, final reading adopted a bill that allows participants in a special military operation and their spouses to be completely exempt from overdue loans in the amount of up to 10 million rubles. This is not a delay or a restructuring, but a termination of obligations. The state legally prohibits banks and collectors to demand repayment of such debts, and bailiffs to continue collecting.
