The Supreme Court of Poland accepted the cassation appeal to remand the case for a decision on correcting the birth certificate. The applicant, R. L., sought to amend her name following marriage, arguing that the lower court's refusal violated her right to name correction under civil law. The court ruled that the legal basis for name correction upon marriage exists and the lower court erred in denying the request.
