"The spiral of searching for non-existent legal grounds." Prof. Marcin Matczak warns about the Constitutional Tribunal
The General Assembly of Judges of the Constitutional Tribunal is set for Tuesday, called by Judge Anna Korwin-Piotrowska, who claims leadership of the Tribunal. She suspended President Bogdan Święczkowski and Vice-President Bartłomiej Sochański from their duties, which they contest. The assembly's quorum is debated, with proposals to lower it from ten to eight judges due to the suspensions. Legal experts warn that altering the quorum rules could allow a small group to make decisions for the entire Tribunal, undermining its integrity.
