The court dismissed the minor's father's lawsuit seeking to raise monthly child support from 400 zł to 1,000 zł. The plaintiff argued that upcoming vocational school costs and the mother's improved financial status justified the increase, while the mother claimed she still faces significant business losses. The court ruled that the plaintiff failed to prove a significant change in circumstances under the relevant family law provisions, noting that the time elapsed since the last judgment was insufficient and future educational costs cannot be anticipated at this stage.
