The Supreme Court of Poland overturned a lower court's dismissal of an appeal, ordering a retrial by the administrative court. The applicant had missed a deadline for submitting a copy of her own appeal because she mistakenly believed the court required a copy of the contested decision instead. The court ruled that the applicant's error was excusable and justified extending the deadline under the Civil Procedure Code.
