WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Poland’s constitutional court has delayed issuing a decision on whether Polish or European Union law has primacy in the country. A judge who has called the EU flag a “rag” and expressed euroskeptic views had been scheduled to deliver the ruling of a five-judge Constitutional Tribunal panel that is considering whether EU treaties conform with the Polish Constitution. But soon after a court hearing opened Wednesday, she delayed the proceedings until May 13. Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki asked the Constitutional Tribunal to weigh in after the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled that a body set up to discipline Poland’s judges is not legal under EU law and must be suspended.
