Trei judecători CCR contestă frontal 'amendamentul Fritz': Sancțiune nouă pentru o faptă veche, voința alegătorilor neutralizată | DOCUMENT

The Romanian Constitutional Court published its decision regarding the integrity law affecting Mayor Dominic Fritz, alongside a dissenting opinion from three judges. They argue that the law retroactively imposes harsher penalties for previously judged actions, undermining legal certainty and voter rights. The dissenting judges also criticize the removal of public disclosure requirements for certain officials, asserting that the court overstepped its authority. They emphasize that the new law creates conflicting sanctions and violates the principle of non-retroactivity, potentially affecting the legitimacy of elected mandates.
