The Regional Court in Poznań convicted the defendant of the crime of non-payment of alimony under Article 209 § 1a of the Criminal Code. The court found that the defendant failed to pay monthly support totaling 1,000 PLN for over five years, creating arrears equivalent to at least three monthly installments and endangering the children's basic needs. Consequently, the court imposed a five-month prison sentence, noting that probation was impossible due to the defendant's prior criminal record.
