Summary/Abstract: The institution of “poor law” has a long history. The regulations adopted in the Polish civil law of the interwar period guaranteed free and unfettered access to the courts for the parties. The introduction of the “right of the poor” was justified by litigation, fiscal and social reasons. The Code of Civil Procedure defined the criteria for the use of this institution, entitled entities, as well as the effects of granting “poor law”.
