The Supreme Court of Poland allowed the town's extraordinary review appeal against the Governor's supervisory decision voiding a town council resolution. The town argued that the lack of a deputy mayor position in the town statute violated the Municipal Self-Government Act, while the Governor held the statute could not legally establish such a position before its effective publication. The court ruled that the town statute is a derivative and complementary legal act to the Municipal Self-Government Act and cannot contain provisions contradicting it, thereby invalidating the Governor's reasoning.
