GFKK consultancy for the M. Karłowicz Primary and Secondary State Music School concerning a claim for the declaration of adverse possession of a property.

The decision of the District Court for Katowice-Wschód in Katowice on the declaration of adverse possession of a property located in Katowice at ul. Teatralna, which for many years has housed the  seat of the M. Karłowicz Primary and Secondary State Music School, has recently become final.
Despite the legally binding ownership expropriation of the property, executed in the 1960s by the National Treasury, the heirs of the previous owners were re-entered into the land register in the early 1990s.
Court proceedings to redeclare adverse possession for the State Treasury continued since 2015. It was a  complicated case as it was difficult to determine the group of participants. All persons are currently staying outside of Poland, in 4 different countries.
Before the establishment of the legal title, the School was generally unable to apply for aid measures from the EU funds for necessary repairs and modernisation of the building.
The GFKK lawyers Szczęsny Kaźmierczak and Jolanta Aleksa - Mróz served as legal representatives in the proceedings. The firm provided pro bono legal assistance.
 
Together with the Principal, the teaching staff and the students of the School we are pleased with this success!
