The Prime Minister comments on the situation in the Constitutional Tribunal. The General Assembly of judges on November 3rd
The recent suspension of the President of the Constitutional Tribunal, Bogdan Święczkowski, has sparked legal debates among experts regarding its legitimacy. Judge Anna Korwin-Piotrowska justified the suspension citing legal violations and threats to the Tribunal's functioning. Opinions vary, with some lawyers questioning the legal basis for such a decision, while others see formal grounds for it. The situation escalated with police involvement, leading to accusations of a power grab. Various political figures have reacted strongly, with calls for restoring the rule of law and condemning the actions taken against the Tribunal's leadership. A general assembly of judges is scheduled for November 3 to address the Tribunal's budget and future.
