Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the prosecutor's claim that pre-October 2001 delegation periods should count toward salary eligibility. The lower court had awarded back pay based on a new law, but the Supreme Court ruled that the principle of non-retroactivity prohibits applying the new salary calculation to periods before the law's effective date. The court emphasized that beneficial statutory changes do not automatically apply retroactively without explicit legislative intent.
Legislator headnote
