To be fair, Poland has been pretty dodgy recently with their judiciary, packing the courts with political appointees and summarily dismissing judges who rule against the government. The ECHR has found the Polish government to be in breach or Article 6, the right to a fair trial, a couple of times now.

Breaching and, importantly, continuing to breach the ECHR doesn't give the EU anywhere to go - Poland will be in breach of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union by extension
