After the Plenum of the Court and the caretaker Minister of Justice waived their powers to submit nominations for President of the Supreme Administrative Court (SAC), the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) will again be in session today.  

Today’s session is the only chance to avoid failure of the procedure for the second time, but for this to happen at least two members of the college of judges have to make a nomination for president of the Supreme Administrative Court. The term of office of the last SAC president Georgi Cholakov expired on 22 November. However, by a decision of the college of judges he has retained the position of president of this key judicial institution until a new president is elected.
