Prawo do swobody wypowiedzi a nieusuwalność i powoływanie sędziów – standardy demokratyczne Rady Europy
Joanna Derlatka
Abstrakt
Przepis art. 10 Konwencji o Ochronie Praw Człowieka i Podstawowych Wolności podkreśla znaczenie wolności ekspresji wypowiedzi oraz wolności informacji jako kamieni węgielnych demokratycznego i pluralistycznego społeczeństwa. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest wskazanie granic korzystania przez sędziów ze swobody wypowiedzi w tej sytuacji, gdy to oni są autorami wypowiedzi krytycznych dotyczących aktualnych problemów demokratycznego ustroju państwowego, nie zaś tylko wówczas, gdy wypowiedzi krytyczne kierowane są pod adresem sędziów i sądów. Apolityczność sędziów powoduje, iż ich udział w debacie publicznej poświęconej aktualnym problemom politycznym powinien zostać poddany szczególnym zasadom. Wartością nadrzędną nadającą ramy udziału sędziów w debacie publicznej jest powściągliwość. Nie zmienia to faktu, iż sędziowie powinni zabierać głos w sytuacji, gdy publiczna debata dotyczy funkcjonowania wymiaru sprawiedliwości czy ustroju sądów powszechnych. Wolność wypowiedzi sędziego nie może być jednak ograniczana przez groźbę sankcji przyjmującą postać naruszenia zasad nieusuwalności oraz powoływania sędziów.
Słowa kluczowe:
prawo swobody wypowiedzi, nieusuwalność sędziów, powoływanie sędziów, debata publiczna, standardy demokratyczneBibliografia
