Organizations that are members of the Justice Defense Committee KOS appealed to the European Commission and the European Parliament in connection with the referral of the amendment to the Act on the Supreme Court by the President of the Republic of Poland to the Constitutional Tribunal of Julia Przyłębska.
The devastation of the rule of law will spread. The politicized Constitutional Court will not decide any legal issues in the spirit of the acquis communautaire. It should be remembered that the same Tribunal has an illegal bench and has already declared that no judgments of the CJEU and the ECtHR are binding in Poland. The restoration of the rule of law cannot be expected from an institution that has itself been appropriated politically, reads the position of the Justice Defense Committee of the KOS.
The KOS demands that all possible measures should be taken to persuade the Polish authorities to properly implement all milestones and restore legal protection to Polish citizens.
