The Supreme Court of Poland accepted the cassation appeal and ordered the enforcement of the international arbitration award against the respondent company. The appellant, a shareholder of the respondent, argued that the company lacked the capacity to be bound by the award due to internal corporate disputes. The court ruled that the arbitration award binds the legal entity as a whole, regardless of internal shareholder disagreements, thereby permitting enforcement proceedings to continue.
