Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed Mieczysław J.'s appeal against the Supreme Council of Judiciary's decision to strip him of his pension and rest status. The court found that the specialized IV A divisions of the regional courts were indeed repression cells used to prosecute political opposition and non-secessionist activities. Consequently, the court ruled that the judge's employment in these divisions constituted active participation in a totalitarian apparatus, thereby legally barring him from the judicial rest privilege.
