There are four candidates: lawyer Adelina Natina-Zikolova, legal expert Maria Daskalova, legal expert Petar Koev, and Stoyan Petkov. The committee is expected to decide today on the admissibility of their candidacies as well as the date on which they will be heard.
Members of the committee include Justice Ministry Secretary General Venera Milova, Supreme Bar Council lawyer Nina Sedefova, Supreme Court of Cassation member Kalin Kalpakchiev, Ombudsman’s Chief Secretary Aysun Avdzhiev and National Audit Office Vice President Silvia Kadreva.

The other three candidates were admitted.
