The court partially granted the minor's request to increase monthly child support from 300 to 450 PLN, ordering the father to pay the difference starting November 2015. The plaintiff argued for higher support due to the child's placement in foster care and the father's lack of emotional engagement, while the defendant claimed his financial situation had not significantly improved. The court ruled in favor of the increase by assessing the father's potential earning capacity and noting that his absence from the child's upbringing justified a higher obligation.
