Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court dismissed the plaintiff's lawsuit seeking payment for subcontracted renovation and modernization work from both the principal contractor and the academy. The plaintiff argued that the principal contractor was liable, while the defendant contended that the director's signature on the subcontract did not create joint liability. The court ruled that the director's actions indicated knowledge of the relationship but did not establish joint responsibility, leaving the subcontractor to bear the risk of non-payment.
