During the discussion with students of the Faculty of Law at VFU, the constitutional law professor expressed her support for the introduction of the individual constitutional complaint as a tool to develop the spirit of the Constitution. According to Professor Nacheva it should be recorded in which cases the individual referral is possible and who will filter the signals so that the Constitutional Court not to turn into the fourth instance. "My personal opinion is that the constitutional complaint should fit within the concept of the Constitution and the idea that the judicial power is independent and independently regulated. Besides, the constitutional complaint should fit within the concept that the decision of the Constitutional Court should not be considered as a revision of the court decision," she said.
