I think article should be expanded to cover recent developments

After the (former) opposition won and took power the crisis started to heat up again. The judiciary branch is effectively split in two, with the new government not recognizing the illegal institutions and courts created by the former PiS government declaring all their moves against them as void and null. Meanwhile the president and PiS (now in opposition) side with their allies and claim the government is breaking the law by ignoring these courts. The PiS alligned exceptional supervision and public matters chamber of the Supreme Court which is not recognized by Court of Justice of the European Union as an independent court reversed the decision on Sejm speaker to revoke the mandates and parliamentary immunity of Kamiński and Wąsik because they claim the previous pardon by the president is still in power. The new government based on the judgements of another court says that no it isn't and they can be sentenced. The 2023 Polish public media crisis is also tied into this, as the government is acting on a 2016 judgement by TK that ruled RMD is illegal. Meanwhile the current PiS controlled TK rulled that TVP cannot be put into liquidation status but the government did it anyway. And perhaps in 4 days the previously mentioned SN chamber might rule that the elections were not valid. There's a lot going on currently and it's very convoluted.

This is a rough overview of the recent developments and I left out A LOT. I'm a novice editor and not too good in English so I lack the ability to comprehensively explain all this and correctly source my sources. So I hope someone else takes on the task.

Addition of recent developments

I've now added a "Removal of PiS government" section that contains information about the recent changes, including the recent arrests. — The Anome (talk) 15:41, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The ruleoflaw.pl lawyers'/journalists' website has lots of good English-language sources. Boud (talk) 19:50, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DjmrFunnyMan and The Anome: To avoid too much redundancy, see where I asked about the relation between this and the related article. My current guess is that things more specifically about the Constitutional Tribunal mainly go in that article, while this one should be broader. Boud (talk) 19:57, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
