Bodnar: judges need our support

A right to jurisdiction belongs to the basic rights of a citizen. Specifically: a right to an independent court and an impartial judge. This is what the constitution and binding international agreements state. It is important to remember these rights because impartiality is often treated only as judge's privilege. However without judicial impartiality, a proper functioning of the state under the rule of law is impossible. Judges would be diminished to the role of office workers who carry out the orders of their superiors, and citizens would be deprived of the security to which they are entitled. The independence of courts is a guarantee that no minister, member of the parliament,  mayor or businessman will dictate courts how to function, which cases to consider and which to postpone, and finally - what judgments to deliver.
