Parliament adopted at first reading a draft bill for changes and amendments to the Civil Procedure Code, related to the powers of the prosecution office. The Prosecutor General will be able to suspend for a period of 48 hours deals between private persons as well as to attack deals in the middle of a pending case.
In Parliament the GERB party surprisingly withdrew the suggestions to the draft bill on the Penal Procedure Code, according to which the Prosecutor General could stop financial operations or deals on property for a period of 48 hours. “We withdraw the changes in the PPC because everything that could be of use would be possible to implement through the Civil Procedure Code” said the chairmen of the GERB parliamentary floor Tsvetan Tsvetanov. According to the amendments to the Civil Procedure Code, which were previously endorsed, the prosecutor may start proceedings on civil cases and take part in them in the occasions envisaged in the law, as well as to appeal any judgment partaking to property rights and legal interests of the state, municipalities or citizens, placed under the special protection of the law, even though he has not been part of the proceeding in which the respective judgment has been ruled.
