Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court granted an extraordinary review, quashing the lower administrative court's decision that extended the forced labor period beyond the war's end. The applicant argued for inclusion of post-May 1945 work, but the court held the statute strictly limits 'deportation' to the WWII period on German territory. Consequently, the case was remanded for reconsideration based on the correct temporal scope of the compensation law.
