In the judgment, passed in December 2014, the Constitutional Tribunal has recognized the provisions of the Outline Planning Law as unconstitutional in this regard, in which they exclude claims for damages of the owners, whose real estate has been destined for public purpose in both: the local development plan being in force on December 31, 1994 and the plan passed afterwards.
Under the applicable law, such persons were deprived of legal protection. The Tribunal’s judgment gives them possibility to claim damages, including the cases completed with final administrative decision or with court judgment.
