WARSAW (Reuters) - Interim measures imposed on the Polish judicial system by the top European court are against the Polish constitution, Poland's Constitutional Tribunal said on Wednesday, setting Warsaw on a collision course with Brussels.


As part of proceedings initiated by Brussels against Poland, the European Court of Justice told Warsaw last year to suspend a panel created to discipline judges. The panel - the Polish Supreme Court's disciplinary chamber - asked whether such a suspension was constitutional.


The European Union's top court told Poland on Wednesday to immediately suspend the chamber.
