Organization "Young Barristers", due to its high civil responsibility, addressed the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia about a foreign citizen, who is allegedly presented in Tbilisi and violates the rules of self-isolation. The organization studied the travel history of the citizen and demanded the appropriate measures to be taken towards the person, who, probably came to Georgia from the Republic of Cyprus.
Based on the "Young Barristers'" explanation, the Georgian Judiciary System reviews the family dispute, concerning determining the minor's residence place. Father, child and Grandmother are permanently living in Georgia from the December of 2018, and mother comes to Georgia periodically, from different countries. The parties had last electronic communication on 19th February of 2020. Based on the next letter to father's representative , dating 12 March, 2020, the mother demanded an immediate meeting with her daughter. But, she was informed, that due to the threats of new coronavirus, the family (father and grandmother) have the minor in the reliable environment and the contact with the third parties is limited. On March 15, 2020, the mother sent another letter to the father's representative, in which she expressed her insult towards the lawyers, that the lawyer, in the process of carrying out his professional duties, shouldn't think about the cost of the service.
On March 19, 2020, the citizen's Georgian lawyer in a written way informed the father's lawyer the following: "Based on the today's situation, X agrees to see the child at her place of residence on her intended date and time. In case of such meeting, it is requested the meeting not to be attended by other family members, in order to build a mother and child relationship without any tension, which would correspond with the today's health organization's recommendations. Also, X has the means to rest the child with her relatives outside Tbilisi, where no cases of coronavirus have been reported. In that case, also, the mother and her child will be isolated from other persons. X will follow all recommendations given by the Ministry of Health. X agrees to see her daughter in an open environment, in any part of Georgia, where few people move. Additionally, we inform you, that X is in healthy condition, isn't in the risk group, is in the isolation, and tries to spend most of her time outside Tbilisi, in order to protect himself from the pandemic situation. In order of leaving the house to the store, she uses medical veil, disposable gloves and glasses. She has no sign of any other virus" (Style Reserved).
Based on the "Young Barristers'" explanation, the written form communication about meeting with the minor is done when X is in Georgia, as usual. Based on that reality, from February 19th 2020, there was no correspondence about meeting with the child, which indicates, that X hasn't been in Georgia. That kind of correspondece has been updated on March 12, 2020. On top of that, based on the March 19, 2020 letter, X is in self-isolation, but, despite that circumstance she would still be able to see her daughter and follow the recommendations and approaches, that have been set for a battle against coronavirus in Georgia at that time. Moreover, on the March 27, 2020 court hearing, as the assistant of the judge explained, X and her lawyer together planned to participate in the remote court hearing. that hearing, due to the new coronavirus threats - was postponed.
"Young Barristers'" explains, that in the response of the March 19, 2020 letter X's lawyer has been addressed, in order to have fast and needed reaction, to tackle the threats, associated with the entry of X into Georgian and the spread of the infection, to have informed the appropriate agencies about the case of X and not to hide the travelling story of her client, which she hasn't done. Therefore, the organization was forced to address the MIA and arise the matter - if X arrived in Georgia from the Republic of Cyprus or any other country, why isn't she a subject to the mandatory rules of the self-isolation, which, indeed, doesn't include being outside the city, nor going into the shop by medical veil, nor interacting with any member of the family. The argument about the fact, that X is completely healthy, based on the given recommendations, is illogical. The organization requires X's travel history to be studied and is concerned about X's lawyer's civil and professional actions, in order to achieve a certain goal.
