The Association states that indirect procedural acts or refusals to initiate proceedings cannot invalidate the decisions of the Supreme Judicial Council
The Prosecutors’ Association of Bulgaria on October 3 released a statement in response to the Supreme Court of Cassation’s decision, which determined that Borislav Sarafov no longer holds legitimate authority to perform the functions of Chief Prosecutor.
The Association emphasises that indirect procedural acts or refusals to initiate proceedings cannot invalidate decisions made by the Supreme Judicial Council, nor can they replace the mechanisms established for contesting such decisions. Clear delineation of competences is essential for institutional stability and predictability, the statement notes.
