Another protest regarding the judiciary reform is taking place in Poland. The president of the Supreme Court, Stanisław Zabłocki, refused to submit a medical certificate about him still being able to rule. This obligation for all judges that turned 65 is one of the consequences of the reform. According to the new law, to avoid retirement, judges have to submit such a document and get permission to remain in the profession by the National Council of the Judiciary. Judge Zabłocki claims this new rule is unconstitutional, as the Polish Constitution states that judges are irremovable. He intends to stay in the Supreme Court, of which he informed the head of the National Council of the Judiciary.
