Judgment of the District Court of Warsaw, 1st Civil Division, dated May 24, 2022
I C 1281/15

1. Given the nature and purpose of the proceedings, which are conducted under the provisions of the Act of 17^th December 2009 on Pursuing Claims in Group Proceedings, it is unnecessary to make findings beyond the facts (factual circumstances) common to all members of the group. In particular, it is superfluous to establish facts individualizing the factual and legal situation of each group member separately. Since the premise determining the effective commencement of proceedings under the said procedure is the fact that the parties in the substantive legal sense (members of the group) are pursuing claims of a single type, based on the same or similar factual basis, everything that goes beyond the indicated iunctim is not within the limits of the examination of the case set by the purpose of the cited act (its ratio legis).

Presiding judge:           Andrzej Kuryłek, Regional Court Judge

Judges:                          Tadeusz Bulanda, Regional Court Judge;
