The court hearing of the case against former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko concerning financial abuse within the United Energy Systems of Ukraine (UESU) Corporation has been adjourned until 1000 on February 12, 2013, due to the absence of the ex-premier's defense lawyer, Serhiy Vlasenko.

"Kyivsky District Court of Kharkiv considers it impossible to consider the case in the absence of Tymoshenko and her defense lawyer. The court announces a break in the hearing until 1000 on February 12," the presiding judge in the trial on the case, Kostiantyn Sadovsky, announced in Kharkiv on Friday.
