Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court of Poland voided the Supreme Administrative Court's decision to dismiss proceedings because the legal representative was not notified of the hearing. The appellant, Zbigniew H., argued that the business entity lacked legal personality, making him the sole liable party, while the Ministry of Justice contended the dismissal was necessary due to the entity's deregistration. The court ruled that failing to notify the appointed counsel deprived the party of their right to defense, rendering the entire procedure invalid regardless of the entity's status.
