Uprawnienia w zakresie dochodzenia roszczeń za krzywdę i szkody powstałe w wyniku represjonowania oraz pozbawienia wolności w okresie Polskiej Rzeczypospolitej Ludowej (lata 50. XX wieku)

Persons repressed in the Polish People’s Republic may base their claims for damages only on the provisions of the Act on the Recognition as Invalid of Judgments Issued Against Persons Repressed for their Activities for the Independent Existence of the Polish State. It is excluded to pursue claims in this respect on the basis of civil law or the Constitution. The basic condition for pursuing a claim is the declaration of invalidity of the decision issued by the authorities of the Polish People’s Republic. These rules apply both to those repressed because of the armed struggle and because of the resistance to collectivisation. These claims are not part of the inheritance, but are based on the principle of singular succession.
