Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the municipal council's decision regarding regulated rent rates due to the omission of mandatory statutory factors. Leszek S. argued that the council failed to include legally required elements for differentiating rent, while the council claimed the listed factors were merely examples. The court ruled that while the statutory list is not exhaustive, the specific factors cited in Article 26 must always be considered as legal prerequisites for differentiation.
