During Andrzej Duda’s presidency, the Law and Justice government introduced laws described as reforms to Poland’s judiciary. The changes gave politicians responsibility for appointing new judges, a role that had previously belonged to fellow judges. They also created a new way for judges to be disciplined. Opponents said these changes made the judiciary more open to political interference and influence.
