Summary/Abstract: Immediately after the Liberation, private law relations in the Bulgarian state continued to be governed by the Turkish Civil Code (Medjele). In form and content, it was an outdated feudal code. It lacked norms for inheritance law, land ownership, and family law. Despite its shortcomings, it is applied in Bulgaria and gradually replaced by new laws enacted in accordance with the relevant legislative procedure.
