KRS not directly, but explains that he has filed the names of candidates for Supreme Court judges positions because of the RODO – FMR FMR reports. This is what the spokesman for the National Register of Justice, Judge Maciej Mitera says. He admits that he has no objection to the candidates, not to inform them, but when RMF FM reporters asked for a specific legal basis, they heard that it was the decision of the National Court Register

"You will not know personal details," said Judge Maciej Mitrea, spokesperson for the National Register of Courts

The secret of names of people who want to become judges at the Supreme Court is absurd enough for their advice to be circulated on the Internet

the council secretes its deliberations, and it can do so so that the community does not know who wants to sit on the Supreme Court until positions are filled by selected persons.
