Supreme Court remands work injury case for full fact-finding after excluding carbon monoxide poisoning as cause of death.

The Supreme Court of Poland revoked lower court decisions that dismissed a claim for a work-related death benefit based on carbon monoxide poisoning. The plaintiff argued her husband died from gas poisoning, while the defendant and medical experts claimed a heart attack was the cause. The court held that excluding poisoning did not absolve the court of its duty under Article 3 § 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure to investigate all external causes, noting the lack of autopsy and missing medical history. Consequently, the case was remanded for a comprehensive re-examination of the worker's health status and working conditions.
