Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's appeal to supplement cassation grounds submitted after the statutory one-month deadline expired. The appellant argued that the missing continuation of the cassation document was a formal defect correctable under Article 130 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The court ruled that while a missing signature is a correctable formal defect, the absence of the document's continuation is not, and adding new grounds after the deadline constitutes an impermissible circumvention of time limits.
