The paper provides a critical comment on the judgement of the Constitutional Tribunal in the case no. K 5/17, one resolution of which stated that the term of office of elected members of the National Council of the Judiciary applies to the group as a whole, and not to individual members. The author underlines the fallacy of such an interpretation of Article 187(3) of the Constitution and declares himself in favour of a view that the members are appointed individually for a set term of office. He formulates his remarks in the context of the terms of office of other collegial constitutional state bodies. An underlying assumption made by the author in his argumentation is pointing out the difference between the office of a judge in the Council and a member of parliament, where the latter is subordinated to a parliamentary mandate. The determination of the Tribunal concerning the term of office of elected members of the National Council of the Judiciary has been exploited by the legislator to change the previous procedure for electing its members, which may result in politicisation of the procedure, and for a curtailment – by means of an parliamentary act – of the four-year tenure for judges prescribed by the Constitution.
