Colorful protest at the Supreme Court. A group of judges boycotts the assembly

A group of 28 Supreme Court judges is boycotting an extraordinary assembly convened by First President Zbigniew Kapiński, questioning its legality and alleging attempts to legitimize improper relations with the executive branch. They argue that Kapiński's appointment violated the Constitution and that the assembly's composition includes judges appointed under controversial circumstances. The judges also criticize the timing of the meeting and doubt the quorum needed for decisions. They emphasize the need for judicial independence and express concerns over the relationship between the Supreme Court and the executive, particularly with President Karol Nawrocki. The assembly aims to address constitutional order threats amid escalating conflicts surrounding the Constitutional Tribunal.
