The Supreme Court of Poland quashed a lower administrative court's decision ordering the demolition of a steel hall built without a construction permit. The plaintiffs argued the structure was a temporary object necessary for ongoing renovation work, exempt from permit requirements under the Construction Law. The court rejected this claim, ruling that the hall did not meet the strict legal definition of a temporary construction object because it was not properly declared or intended for immediate temporary use during construction. Consequently, the court upheld the obligation to demolish the unauthorized structure.
