The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal against a labor court's decision to reject the plaintiff's claim. The plaintiff argued that the appellate court violated procedural rights by notifying him of the hearing day before via telephone, preventing his attendance due to distance, and failing to provide the mandatory three-day notice. The court ruled that the simplified notification method in labor cases does not allow shortening the statutory three-day preparation period, thereby depriving the party of their right to defense and necessitating the remittal of the case.

Art. 149 § 2 in fine k.p.c.; Art. 472 k.p.c.: The simplified notification procedure applicable in labor disputes does not permit the shortening of the three-day notice period required for public hearings, as such reduction would violate the party's right to prepare their defense.
