In this note we prove that a locally graded group $G$ in which all proper subgroups are (nilpotent of class not exceeding $n$)-by-Černikov, is itself (nilpotent of class not exceeding $n$)-by-Černikov.

As a preparatory result that is used for the proof of the former statement in the case of a periodic group, we also prove that a group $G$, containing a nilpotent of class $n$ subgroup of finite index, also contains a characteristic subgroup of finite index that is nilpotent of class not exceeding $n$.
