Polish judicial disciplinary system reform

Overview

The Polish Ministry of Justice has introduced a legislative project to reform the judicial disciplinary system and amend laws concerning the organization of common courts, the prosecution, and the Supreme Court.

The proposal aims to prevent judges from facing penalties for questioning the legality of specific chambers within the Supreme Court or the status of certain judges. Additionally, the reform seeks to reduce the competencies of the Chamber of Professional Responsibility. Under the proposed changes, the selection process for disciplinary spokespersons would shift from being appointed solely by the Minister of Justice to being selected by Judges’ Assemblies at the Court of Appeal and District Court levels.
