Supreme Court dismisses appeal when factory takeover is not liquidation, preserving employee protection under labor law.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the extraordinary revision filed by the Solidarity Union against a labor dispute judgment. The union argued that the employer's failure to obtain municipal council consent for the employee's dismissal violated specific local government statutes. The court found that the lower court failed to determine whether the factory was liquidated or merely transferred to another entity, a distinction crucial for applying the correct labor protection rules. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new trial to clarify the factual nature of the business transition.
