Turmoil in District Court in Olsztyn

Three draft resolutions which appealed, among others to President Maciej Nawacki for refraining from actions hindering judge Paweł Juszczyszyn were submitted by judges from the District Court in Olsztyn.

President of the District Court, the member of the National Court Register (KRS) Maciej Nawacki, assessed that all three projects go beyond the competence of the meeting.

“This is an unacceptable scope of competence of the meeting. At this point, if no one wants to speak, I close the meeting,” he said, then broke the documents handed over to him.

He later told reporters that with this gesture he "referred to a certain parliamentary tradition."

Judge Juszczyszyn was suspended on Tuesday by the Disciplinary Chamber of the Supreme Court. This resulted in, among others by the decision of the president of the Olsztyn district court - at the same time a member of the National Court Register - Maciej Nawacki to remove Juszczyszyn from adjudication.
