Controversy Surrounding Judge Georgieva’s Statement Leads to Request for Recusal

They requested the recusal of Judge Georgieva because of her statement in the commission for the Notary

Former director of customs Petya Bankova and businessman Stefan Dimitrov will appear before the Court of Appeal on April 16. Today’s meeting was postponed due to an ill lawyer. Petya Bankova’s husband Delyan Tanev gave the document to judge Galya Georgieva, who had to decide whether to keep the two in custody.

“In view of the statement of the chairman of the judicial panel that the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor’s office are above everything, and this is not true, because the law is above everything, I request the recusal of the chairman of the judicial panel. You went there to clear your name. No I am aware of how 2 days ago the media spread information that you will be the reporter of the case,” said lawyer Naydenov. On Tuesday, Judge Georgieva was heard in the parliamentary committee for the Notary at her request.

“I have nothing personal against Judge Georgieva. But this politicization of the case is not good for solving it on its merits,” said Ivo Naydenov after the failure of the hearing.

Judge Galya Georgieva refused to recuse herself, but postponed the hearing to April 16, when the chairperson of the panel will be someone else. She fined lawyer Natina BGN 500.
