  • Poland's government on Wednesday said there was no "legal or factual justification" for the European Commission taking Poland to the European Court of Justice over a reform it says undermines judicial independence. "The European Commission's request to the CJEU has no legal or factual justification," government spokesman Piotr Mueller said on Twitter. "Regulation of issues related to the judiciary is an exclusively national domain, which is directly apparent from the Polish Constitution and the EU Treaties. Polish regulations do not deviate from EU standards," he said. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki on Monday submitted an application to Poland's Constitutional Court on the superiority of Polish constitutional law over EU law. Brussels said Wednesday it was asking the European Court of Justice to make an interim order suspending the 2019 Polish law until a final judgment is delivered. The law on reforming the judiciary, which came into force in February last year, prevents Polish judges from referring questions of law to the European Court of Justice and creates a body that rules on judges' independence without regard to EU law. It also set up a "disciplinary chamber" to oversee Polish supreme court judges, with the power to lift their immunity to expose them to criminal proceedings or cut their salaries. The European Commission's move to take Poland to court is part of a campaign by the EU executive to bring the country, and its ally Hungary, back into line with what it considers European democratic norms. It accuses the two populist governments of stifling independent media and imposing reforms that in effect exclude judges whose rulings may not align with the views held by the ruling parties. dt/kjl
