Supreme Court voids KRS decision for false voting data and bans limiting judge nominations to vacancies.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland annulled the National Council of the Judiciary's decision not to submit a candidate for a judgeship due to fraudulent voting statistics. The applicant argued that the Council's refusal to submit multiple top candidates to the President violated constitutional principles of equal access to judicial service. The court ruled that the Council's decision was illegal because its justification contained inaccurate voting results and that the Council cannot restrict the number of nomination requests to the number of available vacancies.
