Miglena Tacheva, a former Justice Minister, has taken over as head of the National Institute of Justice, Bulgaria's main body providing training opportunities for those working in the judicial system.
Tacheva oversaw the judiciary in the cabinet of Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, between 2001 and 2005.
She will now replace incumbent Dragomir Yordanov, who was also running for a second term in office.
The latter was backed by Justice Minister Ekaterina Zaharieva and Supreme Court of Cassation (VKS) chair Lozan Panov, which Tacheva was the candidate preferred by Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov, Supreme Administrative Court head Georgi Kolev, and several others.
Zaharieva and Panov had argued the incumbent was more appropriate for the purposes of the judicial reform that is being carried out under the current government.
