The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal regarding the termination of a doctor's employment contract. The lower court had granted special protection to the plaintiff, who served as a deputy to the regional professional responsibility officer, citing specific statutory provisions. The Supreme Court ruled that this special protection applies only to the principal officer, not to deputies, because the relevant regulation only equates their duties regarding professional liability proceedings. Consequently, the court ordered the case to be remanded for a new decision on the termination's legality.
