Supreme Court allows correction of defendant's name in labor dispute when plaintiff intended to sue the actual employer.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court set aside the Regional Court's dismissal of the plaintiff's request to correct the defendant's name. The plaintiff sued the Mayor instead of the Social Assistance Home, claiming the Mayor lacked legal capacity while the Home was the true employer. The Court ruled that the Regional Court erred by refusing to correct the name, as the plaintiff clearly intended to sue the actual employer despite the procedural mistake.
