The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the appeal against the Regional Court's judgment, which had rejected the plaintiff's claim for severance pay. The court found that the lower court failed to adequately determine the legal basis for the lump sum payment received by the plaintiff in October 1993. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new trial to clarify whether the payment constituted severance or regular salary.
