The Supreme Court of Poland remanded the case to the Court of Appeal for a new trial regarding early retirement benefits. The applicant argued that the lower court incorrectly assessed expert opinions by failing to consider the father's physical capacity to care for his daughter, who requires special attention. The court held that the contested regulation violated constitutional equality principles by presuming mothers must care for sick children, thus the lower court must re-evaluate evidence considering the father's potential role.
