The court granted the plaintiff a partial judgment for an additional compensation sum of 739.10 zł regarding vehicle damage, while dismissing the claim for private expert fees. The defendant admitted liability but argued full payment was already made, whereas the court determined the initial payout did not fully restore the vehicle's pre-accident value. Consequently, the court ordered the defendant to pay the remaining compensation, allocated process costs between the parties based on the 13/87 outcome ratio, and charged the plaintiff for unclaimed expert expenses.
