The defendant resides in Łódź, making the local court in Tomaszów Mazowiecki the wrong forum under Article 27 of the Civil Procedure Code. The court applied the general rule of territorial jurisdiction without needing a prorogation clause, as the defendant was residing in Łódź at the time of filing.
