Supreme Court dismisses appeal court's failure to verify withdrawal cause under Art. 469 KPC, ordering remand for review of insured's legitimate interest.

The Supreme Court of Poland quashed the appeal court's decision to dismiss the proceedings due to the insured's withdrawal of the appeal. The insured claimed she had settled her insurance arrears, but the lower court failed to verify the truth of this reason for withdrawal. The court ruled that the appeal court violated its duty to assess the insured's legitimate interest in quickly obtaining social benefits, which requires verifying the validity of the withdrawal reason.
