The court reduced the monthly child support payment from 1400 PLN to 1200 PLN while dismissing the remainder of the plaintiff's claim. The plaintiff argued for a further reduction due to his new family expenses and the child's relocation, whereas the defendant claimed the child's needs remained high. The court ruled that although the child's living costs decreased slightly, the child had grown significantly over two years and the father's financial situation had not improved, justifying a moderate reduction rather than the requested lower amount.
