Poland's Constitutional Tribunal ruled two bills passed without convicted lawmakers' presence as unconstitutional, siding with President Andrzej Duda amidst legal disputes and political tensions.

Poland's top court, the Constitutional Tribunal, supported President Andrzej Duda amidst a legal dispute over the validity of bills passed without the presence of two convicted lawmakers. This decision may deepen chaos in Poland's legal system and is part of a political battle between centrist Prime Minister Donald Tusk and the previous nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) government. The Tribunal ruled that two minor bills adopted without the participation of former Interior Minister Mariusz Kaminski and his deputy, Maciej Wasik, were unconstitutional.
