Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for severance pay following the director's removal. The lower court had denied the claim because the removal was linked to the company's financial crisis and the establishment of a commissary administration. The Supreme Court ruled that the removal based solely on Article 66(2) without citing Article 65(1) does not deprive the director of the right to severance pay.
