Since its introduction into the Polish legal order, this right has given rise to significant interpretative doubts, particularly concerning the prerequisites for rendering the compensation immediately due and payable, the debtor’s ability to defend against this claim, and the issue of including the compensation in the costs of the lawsuit or in the value of the subject matter of the dispute in court proceedings. These doubts, in the author’s opinion, are largely due to the shortcomings of the legal regulation of compensation, which does not include in its scope many important issues, as well as its highly autonomous nature, which in turn prevents the analogous application of solutions concerning other legal institutions.}, doi = {10.4467/23921943RP.23.002.18261}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/radca-prawny/article/rekompensata-za-koszty-odzyskiwania-naleznosci-wybrane-zagadnienia} }
