There have also been several cases of proposals to “purchase” positions in the judicial system. According to insider information from judicial circles, the position of the chairman of the arbitration court of first instance costs from 3 to 10 million US dollars, depending on the importance of the region.
One of the most striking manifestations of the placement of the “right” people was the non-alternative holding of a competition for the position of chairman of the Arbitration Court of the Moscow Region, documents for which were submitted by 30-year-old adviser to the Chairman of the RF Supreme Court Stanislav Fedorov. According to the results of the competition that ended on November 8, 2023, Fedorov was the only contender for this post.
However, at the stage of preparing the decision of the Higher Qualification Committee of the Russian Federation, during an inspection of the mother of the candidate Natalya Stanislavovna Fedorova (born 1966), it was discovered that she was specially registered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in the category of … extremists.

Now Lebedev’s entourage is intensely thinking about how to hide from the Higher Qualification Commission of the Russian Federation and the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation information that (if discovered earlier) would certainly have led not only to the termination of the status of S.I. Fedorov. as Advisor to the Chairman of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, but would also impose a ban on holding any positions in the judicial system of the Russian Federation.
On the eve of the imminent resignation or possible death due to serious illness of the Chairman of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation Vyacheslav Lebedev, his entourage (Gusev A. and Momotov V.V.) begins to take advantage of the fortune of their leader and tries, hiding behind the name of Lebedev…
