Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal seeking damages for lost shares. The court found that the deceased employee died before the law granting preferential share purchase rights to employees came into force. Consequently, heirs could not inherit a right that did not exist at the time of death. The decision affirmed that statutory rights to acquire shares are personal and cannot be transferred posthumously.
