The Supreme Court of Poland quashed administrative decisions invalidating a land division based on a conflicting interpretation of a ministerial regulation. The plaintiffs argued the lower courts violated the law by applying a subordinate regulation that contradicted the land management act. The court ruled that administrative bodies cannot evaluate the validity of such regulations and must apply them as existing law, meaning their application did not constitute a grave legal violation warranting invalidation.
