The Supreme Court rejected the cassation appeal filed by Tadeusz C. regarding the validity of 1994 municipal council elections. The appellant argued that the election ordinance violated proportionality principles, but the court held that the specific election rules exhaustively defined the judicial review process. Consequently, the court ruled that civil procedure code provisions on cassation were inapplicable, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
