Two favorable rulings in foreign currency cases!
At the end of an intense pre-holiday week, we are pleased to inform you about two new rulings issued in cases handled by the Law Firm.
By a ruling dated December 17, 2024, the District Court for Warsaw-Praga declared the contract concluded with Nordea-Habitat in 2010 invalid and awarded the Law Firm’s Clients the amount of 307,113.82 PLN along with interest from the date of delivery of the lawsuit to the Defendant until the date of payment (case file no: III C 1752/23).
On December 18, 2024, the District Court in Ostrołęka ruled that the contract concluded with Euro Bank S.A. is invalid and awarded the Law Firm’s Clients the amount of 164,796.62 PLN along with interest from the eighth day following the delivery of the lawsuit to the Defendant until the date of payment (case file no: I C 871/24). It is also worth noting that the ruling in this case was made in less than 4 months from the filing of the lawsuit.
The above rulings confirm that currently, courts have no doubts about the unfair nature of the clauses used in foreign currency contracts. Furthermore, it is widely accepted that the inclusion of such clauses in a contract with a consumer leads to the invalidity of the contract. This is great news for those whose cases have not yet been resolved.
