The gloss relates to the Supreme Court’s resolution adopted by a seven-judge panel on 21 June 2023 (III CZP 94/22) concerning the acquisitive prescription of real estate constituting a state forest. In this resolution, the Court held that Article 2 of the Act on preserving the national character of the country’s strategic natural resources does not preclude the acquisition by acquisitive prescription of such real estate. The gloss endorses this position, pointing out that the rules of linguistic interpretation unequivocally support the assumption that the term „ownership transformation” as used in Article 2 of the Act refers only to processes of ownership change of a structural nature. In the opinion of the glossator, the Court rightly concluded that the result of the linguistic interpretation is confirmed by the purpose of the Act, also taking into account the historical context of its enactment.
