The court dismissed the father's request to reduce monthly child support from 470 to 370 zlotys. Although the father claimed unemployment and high living costs, the court found his income had increased slightly and he failed to utilize his skilled trade potential. The judge ruled that the father voluntarily reduced his financial capacity by renting an apartment while still taking the child to his parents' home, making the reduction unjustified.
