AI generated

The Supreme Court of Poland declared the cassation appeal inadmissible because the lower court incorrectly treated the plaintiff's letter as a formal cassation petition. The plaintiff argued that the letter was merely a request for review, while the lower court rejected it as a cassation appeal. The court ruled that since the document lacked the essential characteristics of a cassation petition, the lower court's rejection was legally flawed, necessitating the dismissal of the proceedings.
