This article explores a study of the practice of using official model justifications for rulings in disciplinary proceedings of selected professional corporations. The research data was obtained by requesting public information from 84 disciplinary courts. The study revealed that most of these courts do not apply Article 99a of the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure. Further analysis leads to broader conclusions on the application of law accordingly. Most importantly, it enables a systemic, rather than incidental, evaluation of the actual outcome of applying a procedural legal norm and an assessment of the compatibility of this outcome with the specific nature of disciplinary proceedings. This grants the disciplinary judiciary an additional dimension of independence, which is not present in the common courts.
