Nawrocki said "no". Maciej Berek cannot adjudicate in the Constitutional Tribunal.

Maciej Berek, appointed by the Sejm, took an oath as a Constitutional Tribunal judge but did so without the President's presence, leading to a dispute over its validity. The President's office stated that the oath must be taken in the President's presence to be legally binding. Berek's oath was deemed invalid, as he did not establish a formal relationship with the Tribunal. The President emphasized that formal doubts prevent him from accepting the oath. The situation raises questions about Berek's qualifications and the legitimacy of the Tribunal's operations. Discussions continue regarding the appointment of new judges and the Tribunal's functioning.
