Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court of Poland, via extraordinary review, set aside a lower court ruling that had declared an expropriation decision invalid. The lower court had found the expropriation unlawful because the purpose (workers' gardens) did not meet the strict definition of public utility under the law. The Supreme Court reversed this, ruling that the correct authority to declare invalidity was the Ministry of Housing, not the Province, based on the law effective at the time of the expropriation.
