The Supreme Court of Poland refused to issue a ruling on a legal question submitted by the National Firefighting Section of the Solidarity Union. The applicants, representing the National Firefighters Union and the Solidarity Union's Firefighting Section, argued that Article 32 of the Labor Union Act applied to specific fire service circumstances. The court determined that the Firefighting Section is merely a branch structure and not a representative national union covering the majority of workplaces, thereby lacking the statutory standing to submit such questions to the Supreme Court.
