Związanie sądu wyrokiem Trybunału Konstytucyjnego wydanym w nieprawidłowo umocowanym składzie (refleksje na tle wyroku Wojewódzkiego Sądu Administracyjnego w Warszawie z dnia 20 czerwca 2018 r., sygn. akt V SA/Wa 459/18)

The purpose of this article is to discuss the legal effects of the rulings of the Constitutional Tribunal issued by improperly authorized compositions of the Tribunal. For the needs of this article, an improperly authorized composition is a composition, which consists of at least one unauthorized person, meaning a person that is not a judge. The case encompasses judges of the Constitutional Tribunal appointed by Sejm of the eighth term on the posts, which previously were occupied by people appointed by Sejm of the seventh term. Forming a composition of the Constitutional Tribunal which contains a non-judge should be perceived as violation of the Constitution and the European Union law. In the author’s opinion, because of the scale of the violation and lack of possibility to eliminate this fault in another way, the ruling of the Constitutional Tribunal issued by unduly empowered composition should be considered as sententia non existens. As a consequence, such ruling does not have any legal effects and does not exist in the legal and procedural meaning.
