AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed a protest filed by a Polish citizen residing in Norway against the presidential election results. The petitioner argued she was wrongly excluded from the voter list due to a lack of a valid passport, yet the court found she failed to meet statutory prerequisites for filing a protest. Consequently, the court ruled that without a valid passport and a domestic representative, the protest was inadmissible and left it without further proceedings.
