Abstract The institution of questions of law, as a result of which the court ruling in the case is bound by the view of the Supreme Court expressed in its resolution, is an exception to the constitutional principle of subordination of judges solely to the Constitution and statues (Article 178(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland). The point of law which raises serious doubts because divergent interpretation of the same provision exist in the case-law could be submitted when in the opinion of the appellate court each of these interpretations can be adopted in view of its significant legal arguments, and neither the position of the jurisprudence nor the doctrine of law explains which interpretation should be chosen. The point of law submitted to the Supreme Court for resolution under Article 390(1) of the Code of Civil Procedure must meet three basic requirements. Firstly, the point of law must be of an abstract nature and concern the interpretation of legal provisions, as it is unacceptable to present to the Supreme Court a question of law simply to get an answer on how to settle the case. Secondly, the point of law needs to concern a legal doubt which needs to be clarified in order to examine the legal remedy; in other words, in order to use the right set forth in Article 390(1) of the CCP, a link must exist between the presented point of law and a decision to be made on the merits of the case, and such link needs to be demonstrated through the juridical consistency of the point of law formulated at the outset and the reasons thereto, and through the proper reference to the facts of the case in such generally defined question of law. Thirdly, the point of law to be resolved needs to concern a legal issue which raises serious doubts; if ordinary doubts arise, the court of second instance needs to settle them on its own. The significance of the issue or the discrepancies in the jurisprudence and literature regarding the ways of its resolutions are not per se independent premises for raising a question of law.

Abstract The study is devoted to the issue of criminal liability of a perpetrator suffering from conversion identity disorders. Therefore, its aim is to highlight the dilemmas arising from a split personality disorder in the context of the insanity of the perpetrator of a prohibited act. Based on the example of Kenneth Bianchi (case study), the difficulties related to the diagnosis of this disorder and its consequences in relation to criminal liability are shown. In turn, the analytical-dogmatic method is used to consider the issue related to the recognition of these disorders as a specific category of causes of the condition referred to in Article 31 § 1 of the Polish Criminal Code. Regardless of this, the study also presents an approach to this issue that differs from that previously presented in the literature. The conclusions drawn on this basis also allow for filling a certain gap in the Polish literature on criminal law, which is a lack of studies on the subject matter.

Abstract This study focuses on the new procedure of electronic deliveries in administrative jurisdictional proceedings, as regulated by the provisions of the Code of Administrative Procedure. The primary research objective was to describe de lege lata the modes of individual deliveries, indicating their mutual hierarchy, while also addressing several issues related to the relationship between the Code and the Act on Electronic Deliveries. Both normative acts necessitate co-existence, and thus determining which of them and in which situational variants will be qualified as lex generali. This task is by no means facilitated by the fact that the characteristics of the framework regulation can be found in the Code, while the Act “model” regulates the rules of communication involving public entities. The main thesis presented in the study underscores the need for a systemic interpretation of the provisions of the latter Act. The author also believes that the definition of the scope of exclusions from the application of the Act was not designed appropriately. The issues raised have not been the subject of articles thus far.

Abstract The article explores the issue of reconstructed families, focusing specifically on the roles of individual family members and the processes that occur within such families. Due to the complexity of the above processes, the article concentrates on the deliberations about the stepparent’s upbringing process towards the stepchild, determining its content, scope and role. The article analyses of the stepparent’s duty towards the stepchild, highlighting its normative sources, and assesses this duty in relation to the parental authority of the spouse and the parental authority of the other biological parent outside the reconstructed family. The deliberations presented in the article aim to support the primary thesis of the article that in order for the foster parent’s current custody of the child to be effective, the stepparent’s situation in terms of upbringing obligation should be made independent of the biological parent’ situation, which stems from their parental authority. The article proposes introducing for example, an institution of the so-called “adoptive parent’s care” that would encompass some rights and obligations typical of parental authority and independent of the parental authority of the child’s biological parent. This could serve as an equivalent to the concept of parental responsibility found in English law.

Abstract The scholarly and research-focused article aims to analyse resolutions and rulings of the Supreme Court Criminal Chamber concerning substantive criminal law passed in 2022 as a response to the so-called legal questions. The subject of the analysis covers such issues as: the crime of failure to report a crime (Article 240 § 1 of the Criminal Code); suspension of the statute of limitations for criminal offenses due to the COVID-19 pandemic; a student of the Faculty of Public Order of the Academy of Internal Affairs in Szczytno as a person not serving in the state security bodies; and revocation of a driving licence in the event its holder who is a member of a military unit performing tasks outside the country commits an act consisting in driving a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol (Article 135(1) of the Road Traffic Act). The fundamental objective of this scientific research is to evaluate the legitimacy of this body’s interpretation of the regulations encompassing legal issues referred to the Supreme Court for resolution. The primary research theses aim to demonstrate that the so-called legal questions referred to the Supreme Court play an important role in ensuring the uniformity of common and military courts’ judgements, given that the body’s stance relies on in-depth reasoning. The research findings present an original perspective developing the interpretation found in the analysed resolutions in a creative way. While the research primarily focuses on national aspects, the article holds significant importance for the scientific community. This is due to its detailed dogmatic analysis and substantial theoretical discourse. Moreover, its practical utility is evident as it enriches the Supreme Court’s arguments and addresses circumstances that justify diverse opinions.

Abstract The scholarly and research-focused article examines the content of Article 25 §§ 4 and 5 CC, which was transferred to the new Article 231b §§ 1 and 2 CC of Chapter XXIX of the Criminal Code by means of Act of 20 February 2015 amending the Criminal Code Act and Certain Other Acts. The regulation concerns the intervention-related self-defence, wherein a person acting in self-defence and repelling an attack on another’s good protected by law, while simultaneously protecting public security or order, is granted the same legal protection as public officials. The article analyses the genesis and development of this defence, its legal nature, objectives, conditions for application, the scope of criminal law protection for a person acting within the intervention-related self-defence, the exclusion of this protection, and the relationship between Article 231b § 1 and Article 217a CC. The primary scientific objective is to evaluate the legitimacy of its introduction to the Criminal Code and the correctness of defining the premises for its application and its scope. The aim of the considerations is to demonstrate that this measure, despite the negative assessment of its introduction to the Criminal Code in the doctrine, can play a vital role in ensuring security and public order.

Abstract The Act on supporting households in bearing the costs related to the change of the digital terrestrial television broadcasting standard was passed by the government on February 24, 2022, and a month later, on March 23, 2022, it was amended, because it became necessary to clarify the issue of the circle of people entitled to receive state support, which is absolutely fundamental from the point of view of this act. The content of the article will therefore be to determine the content of the normative set by interpreting the regulations of the aforementioned Act, so it takes into account all functional relationships of the standards under study and is based on all available sources of information. At the same time, when analysing statutory regulations, the author will reflect on their compliance with the principle of specificity of law, interpreted by the Constitutional Tribunal from the constitutional principle of a democratic state ruled by law.

Abstract The article is a review of the issues concerning the concept of “the best interest of the child” as a negative condition for granting a divorce in the light of a diagnosis made in the Opiniodawcze Zespoły Specjalistów Sądowych (OZSS) on family courts’ request. It presents legal and psychological views on the best interest of the child in the context of a divorce treated as a crisis in the family. Comments are also presented on the scope of examination conducted by the OZSS experts on the impact of a divorce on the best interest of the child and selected problems related to their specificity. Based on the selected literature on the subject matter, case law and the work practice of the OZSS experts in the field of psychology, subjective views on the methodology of examining the impact of a divorce on the best interests of children are also presented. The main thesis of the article is the opinion that commissioning the OZSS experts by family courts to examine negative conditions for granting a divorce is controversial.
