Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's complaint regarding the rejection of a civil appeal. The lower court had rejected the appeal because the second-instance judgment was rendered in January 1995, prior to the new Civil Procedure Code provisions. The court ruled that since the judgment predated the July 1, 1996, effective date of the amendment, the right to appeal lay with cassation, not appeal, rendering the appeal inadmissible.
