The country's Supreme Bar Council has already set up a body that will deal with the complaints and decide on whether there is any ground for submitting them to the top Bulgarian court, an inquiry of the news website Dnevnik.bg has shown.
There are seven departments with the council that will review each complaint. These include departments of Constitutional Law; Criminal Law; Civil Law; Commercial Law; Administrative Law; Financial and Taxation Law; International and European Law).
After the documents submitted to them are reviewed, the Supreme Bar Council will decide at a regular session whether to forward the complaint to the Constitutional Court.
