As the journal recalls in February In 1997, Andrzej Duda defended his master’s thesis at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the Jagiellonian University “Expropriation of real estate for the construction of toll motorways”, after which he stayed academic and didactic employee of the Jagiellonian University Administrative Proceedings Department.
“From the official documents we reached, it appears that by resolution of December 19, 2003 the bar council refused to enter him on the list of advocate trainees, “because Mr. Duda did not obtain the required minimum points at the stage of the written test” “ – goes on to “Wyborcza”, pointing out that in the aforementioned test Andrzej Duda scored 67 points, while the minimum was 85 points.
“This is a very mediocre result, unfortunately, testifying to the low knowledge of the then master Andrzej Duda” – commented in an interview with the daily experienced Szczecin lawyer Włodzimierz Łyczywek, dean of the Szczecin bar, formerly a member of the Supreme Bar Council, in the profession for half a century.
As “Wyborcza” continues, Andrzej Duda appealed against the decision in his case. An anonymous interlocutor of the newspaper , a “Krakow lawyer”, notes: “Interestingly, he did not claim, for example, that the commission made a mistake in assessing his work, but used something that journalists used to call formal trick “.
On April 2, 2004, Andrzej Duda applied – as we read – to resume the proceedings regarding entry on the list of trainee lawyers, and he referred to the judgment of the Constitutional Tribunal of February 18, 2004. The problem is that this decision was made after the examination he failed.
In the appeal, Andrzej Duda “consciously or unknowingly confused the rules”
“ May 28, 2004 r. The District Bar Council in Kraków refused to resume the proceedings, indicating that the competition was conducted in accordance with the regulations in force at that time. NOW she also reminded Duda that ‘the Tribunal has stated in the justification of the judgment that the competition proceedings carried out so far have been effective’ “ – reports “Gazeta Wyborcza”.
Andrzej Duda, this resolution, as the newspaper continues he appealed to the Supreme Bar Council, but also her Presidium pointed out that, according to the Constitutional Tribunal, “competitions for legal and legal adviser’s apprenticeships before the judgment was announced remain effective”.
“It also pointed out to the future president that ‘decisions on admissions to applications (…) were made on the basis of other provisions than those covered by the CT ruling on unconstitutionality ” – emphasizes ‘Wyborcza’.
“It means the same Andrzej Duda’s appeal to the Supreme Council was a sell-off because he was knowingly or unknowingly confusing the rules “ – explain in an interview with the newspaper “lawyers who saw the NRA decision in the Duda case”.
“Andrzej Duda stayed after the parliamentary election in 2005 an expert on the legislation of the Law and Justice parliamentary club. On August 1, 2006, Prime Minister Jarosław Kaczyński appointed him to the position deputy minister of justice. This is how his political career began, “concludes Gazeta Wyborcza.
