Supreme Court allows cassation appeal dismissal due to lawyer's declaration omission as non-essential after law change.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court overturned the appellate court's dismissal of a cassation appeal regarding early retirement benefits. The lower court rejected the appeal because the lawyer's power of attorney lacked a specific declaration that the lawyer was not employed, a requirement previously mandated by statute. The Supreme Court ruled that following a 2005 amendment, this declaration is merely informational and does not prevent the appeal from proceeding, thus the dismissal was unlawful.

AI generatedArt. 8 ust. 2 ustawy o radcach prawnych; Art. 89 § 3 k.p.c.: The omission of a lawyer's employment declaration in a power of attorney is informational only and cannot serve as grounds for dismissing a cassation appeal.
