Supreme Court allows Ministry to appoint notary as applicant's patron without consent.

The Supreme Court of Poland overturned the Notary Chamber's refusal to appoint a notary as a patron for a law applicant. The Ministry argued that the Chamber's decision violated the public interest in training applicants, while the Chamber claimed the notary had no statutory obligation to accept the role. The court ruled that the Chamber must organize the training process and that the notary's limited freedom of action within the profession requires them to accept the appointment to fulfill the public interest mandate.
