Rzeczpospolita Magazine has published the latest article in its Lawyers’ Panel series, featuring renowned representatives of legal science and practice – including dr hab. Krzysztof Koźmiński, prof. UW, Managing Partner at Jabłoński Koźmiński & Partners Law Firm.
The discussion focused on the vacant judicial positions on the Constitutional Tribunal – a problem that will only worsen in the coming months. Experts agree that filling these vacancies is crucial, and the judicial selection process needs to be depoliticized.
As our expert notes:

The law, including the constitution, mandates the activities of constitutional bodies.
