Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe civil court dismissed R. B.'s lawsuit against the State Treasury for 1 million zloty in damages and compensation. The plaintiff argued that his personality rights were violated while in prison due to involuntary criminal behavior stemming from a mental state at the time of his first conviction. However, the court ruled that the burden of proof rests entirely on the plaintiff to demonstrate the infringement and causal link, which he failed to do without presenting any evidence.
