The Supreme Court rejected the cassation appeal filed by the defendant against the appellate court's ruling. The core issue was the invalidity of a contract alleged to be formed orally, which violates the mandatory requirement for written form under Polish law. The court held that the oral agreement was legally void, thereby upholding the lower court's decision to declare the contract invalid.
