Firstly, it must be taken into account that the definition of a property is autonomous and, as a rule, is broader in Protocol 1 than in the national law. The article refers to many judgments and analyzes a few of them in detail (e.g. those issued in the following cases:Broniowski v. Poland, Hutten-Czapska v. Poland, Moskal v. Poland, Cichopek v. Poland) while describing which specific regulations were introduced as a result of these judgments. The conclusion of the article is the positive evaluation of ECHR decisions which also take the Polish Supreme Court and Constitutional Court and other context-specific elements into account – which should also be considered by the Polish Executive to avoid any possible violations.
