Warchoł Criticizes the Rulers:

You Want to Attack the Constitutional Tribunal in Two Days.

Mateusz Nowak

- In two days, you want to carry out an attack on the Constitutional Tribunal, while for two years you have not made these appointments - said Marcin Warchoł during a Sejm session.

- Article 194 of the Constitution clearly states that terms are individual and judges are elected as vacancies arise, before the predecessor's term expires. Meanwhile, you are making these appointments collectively, wholesale, in one swoop, leading to the takeover of the Constitutional Tribunal, which is obviously unlawful in light of Article 194 - he continued.

- The second provision, [no.] 197 of the Constitution indicates that only a statute can be the reason for electing judges to the Tribunal, the basis for electing judges. Meanwhile, you are making these appointments based on what? On a regulation - he continued.
