Summary/Abstract: The accession of Bulgaria to the European Union in 2007 leaded to adoption of the new Civil Procedure Code. For the first time the national legislator set up procedural rules related to the Consumers’ protection, including also those about the court’s jurisdiction of the consumers’ disputes. The last year some of the existing provisions were changed or amended. Thе Article contains a brief review of the current development particularly in the field of the court’s jurisdiction in consumer’s disputes (Art.113 CPC), as well as underlines existing problems from procedural points of view. The author also makes some proposals for resolving related problems as well as he points out and gives ideas on how the national legislation might be improved in the area.
