Prof. Ryszard Piotrowski on the situation in the Constitutional Tribunal: We are dealing with something unprecedented

The conflict within the Constitutional Tribunal escalated after Anna Korwin-Piotrowska was appointed to lead its operations, leading to protests and claims of illegitimacy from President Bogdan Święczkowski. President Karol Nawrocki returned from Senegal to address the situation, asserting a constitutional breach. An assembly at the Tribunal, led by Korwin-Piotrowska, determined that eight judges were sufficient for quorum, despite ongoing disputes about the legitimacy of the judges present. The assembly approved the Tribunal's budget and appointed disciplinary representatives.
