After the past events in the country, the Chair of the Legal Committee at the National Assembly filed a proposal for amendments in the procedural rules for election of a Constitutional Court justice. The preliminary hearing of Mr Grozdan Iliev before the Legal Committee is scheduled for the today’s session of the Committee at 3:00 pm. The actual election in plenary will be held on February 22 – Friday, instead of March 6.
However, BILI managed to communicate and publish the profile of Mr Iliev, prepared in accordance with the Transparent Judicial Appointments Initiative methodology. Forcing the election of a Constitutional Court justice blocks the possibility for NGOs to submit statements and questions to the candidate.
