The Supreme Court of Poland overturned the Supreme Administrative Court's decision regarding a neighbor's claim that a new fence would block sunlight to their crops. The applicants argued the 1.93m solid wall would destroy their garden vegetation and create a tunnel effect, while the lower court incorrectly limited the legal protection to residential windows. The court ruled that the Building Law and related regulations protect the entire adjacent plot, including agricultural land, from light deprivation caused by structures like fences.
