The Supreme Court of Poland accepted the insurance company's cassation appeal regarding liability for third-party tort damages. The lower courts had ruled in favor of the foreign insurers against the Polish policyholder, but the Supreme Court found errors in the application of insurance law principles. Consequently, the appeal was admitted for further examination to correct the legal misapplication.
