The Supreme Court of Poland rejected the prosecution's request to reopen the final judgment of the Appeal Court in Białystok. The prosecution argued for an ex officio retrial based on new evidence or legal errors, but the court found no statutory basis for such a measure. Consequently, the decision to dismiss the retrial request stands as the procedural outcome.
