The Supreme Court granted the cassation appeal against the lower court's dismissal of the unfair competition claim. The plaintiff alleged that the defendant, a foreign company, engaged in exclusionary practices in the Polish market, while the defendant argued for immunity based on its foreign status. The court ruled that the defendant's activities within Poland fell under the jurisdiction of Polish unfair competition law, thereby allowing the claim to proceed.
