The court partially granted the father's request to increase monthly child support from 250 zł to 350 zł, while dismissing the remainder of the claim. The father argued his financial situation had drastically improved following a divorce and new employment, whereas the mother continued working part-time at a lower income. The court ruled that the increase was justified by the passage of time and the child's growing needs, but denied further hikes as they would exceed the mother's reasonable earning capacity.
