Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the appellant's appeal after the District Court rejected it due to an incorrect valuation of the dispute subject. The appellant failed to specify the correct value in the appeal, submitting only three months of salary instead of the required twelve months. The court ruled that the District Court erred in treating this omission as a failure to cure the defect, establishing that the value must be verified and corrected based on first-instance records.
