Supreme Court ruled judicial clerks' 2002 salary governed the 1999 regulation, not the 2001 Act's general provision.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the claim by judicial clerks seeking salary equalization for 2002 based on a more favorable 2001 Act provision. The clerks argued that the new law should apply retroactively to benefit them, while the lower court rejected this by noting the specific 2002 salary rules. The court held that the 2001 Act temporarily suspended the old regulation for that year, meaning the 1999 regulation remained the valid basis for their pay.
