The Bulgarian Judges’ Union (SSB) has issued a statement to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) regarding a complaint filed by Judge Georgi Ushev. Ushev requested disciplinary proceedings against Judge Vladislava Tsarigradska following statements she made during a television appearance on the program "Na Fokus s Laura…". The SSB’s statement expresses support for Tsarigradska and criticizes the SJC’s silence on the matter. The union indicated it will publicly address the situation if the SJC remains unresponsive. This action highlights concerns about potential pressure on judicial independence within the Bulgarian legal system. The SSB argues that open discussion is necessary when official bodies fail to act. The complaint against Tsarigradska’s statements remains under consideration by the SJC.
