Under Article 45(1)(b) of the Bulgarian Property Act, the general meeting of condominium owners may order the owner of a floor or part of a floor to leave the building for up to three years if the owner systematically breaches the house rules, the meeting\u2019s decisions on internal order, or accepted standards of conduct. Under Article 45(2), the meeting may adopt such a decision only if the manager has warned the owner in writing that they will be required to leave the property and the owner has failed to stop the breach after receiving the warning. Under Article 46(2), once the meeting\u2019s decision under Article 45 has become final, the manager or the chair of the management board may apply for an enforcement order under Article 410(1) of the Code of Civil Procedure. In those proceedings, evidence must be produced both that the owners adopted a decision to remove the owner in accordance with Article 45 and that the defendant was warned before the decision was taken.<\/p>\n
