AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the divorce lawsuit because the District Court in Tarnobrzeg incorrectly designated itself as the competent court. The plaintiff filed the suit in Tarnobrzeg, but the Supreme Court found that the proper venue lay elsewhere based on the specific circumstances of the case. Consequently, the lower court's designation was voided, and the case must be refiled in the correct jurisdiction.
