O prokonstytucyjnej wykładni przepisu artykułu 618b § 3 Kodeksu postępowania karnego (uwagi dotyczące górnej granicy należnego świadkowi zwrotu zarobku lub dochodu)
On the Pro-Constitutional Interpretation of Article 618b § 3 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Remarks on the Upper Limit of the Witness's Entitlement to Reimbursement of Lost Earnings or Income)

Summary/Abstract: In this article, the author presents a model of the proconstitutional interpretation of Article 618b § 3 of the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure (k.p.k.) which assumes that the above-mentioned regulation is incompatible with normative content stated in Articles 2, 31 ust. 3, 52 ust. 1, 64 ust. 1 i 2 of the Polish Constitution in any possible interpretative variant. Therefore, Article 618b § 3 k.p.k. should be omitted in the process of applying the law due to the supremacy of the constitutional provisions and their direct applicability. In conclusion, the author states that the court should adjudicate a full reimbursement of the wages lost by the witness due to his or her appearance in court to testify.
