Former Bulgarian Tsar Simeon Saxe-Coburg, who also served as the country's PM 2001-2005, plans to sue the Bulgarian state for freezing his ownership of lands formerly returned to him.

The Bulgarian Ministry of Regional Development has hired three top law firms to analyze all documentation related to the properties of former Tsars Ferdinand I, Boris III and their heirs.

The documentation has been collected by the temporary parliamentary committee on the confiscated and later reinstated royal properties.

After conducting a thorough analysis, the legal experts have been assigned the task to collect any additional paperwork and asses the possibility for the Bulgarian State to sue the heirs of the former Tsars in order to protect the country's interests.

The properties in question include the “Vrana,” “Tsarska Bistritsa,” and “Sitnyakovo” residential palaces, the property known as “Saragiol,” and a house in the village of Slatina.

All 3 law firms have in-dept knowledge of the cases surrounding the royal properties – one is involved in the notorious “Krichim” palace case between Boris III's children – Simeon Saxe-Coburg and Maria-Louisa, and another one is dealing with the case where the State wants to take back ownership of lands and forests near the town of Samokov.

The law firms are to be paid a total of BGN 15 000 for their services and have a 30-day deadline to finish all work.

It was reported recently that former Bulgarian Tsar Simeon Saxe-Coburg, who also served as the country's Prime Minister 2001-2005, plans to sue the Bulgarian state for freezing his ownership of lands formerly returned to him.
