Sofia Administrative Court rejects appeals against anti-Covid measures

The Sofia Administrative Court has so far rejected more than 30 appeals against anti-epidemic measures, most of them related to the requirement for a green certificate. Citizens who filed the complaints claim that due to the lack of a certificate they would not be allowed to work or visit public places and will have to pay for tests.

According to the court, the appeals did not provide specific evidence of damages, but only hypothetical assumptions about them. In some of the court rulings it is written that the order for the green certificate stipulates the presumption that the public and state interests prevail over the personal one.
