Summary/Abstract: In the European legal culture evolved into a model of justice. This model reflects a legal tradition derived from Roman law and Canon law. It was based on the so-called principles, which include: openness of procedures, impartiality, discretion, professionalism and openness of procedures and the same proceedings. There by, it aspire to objectifi cation procedural steps, while judges detach from judgments or decisions. These standards have been saved in a number of acts of international law and in the constitutions of the various states, including the Constitution of Polish Republic. Modern judicial system provides advanced and equal access for all people not only to courts and tribunals but also to a just and public assessment of the case by a proper, independent and impartial court. In other words, it is one of the most fundamental human rights.
