The article presents the rules on jurisdiction and applicable law contained in Polish law in comparison with the EU Succession Regulation. In accordance with private international law rules contained in the Polish Private International Law Act and its predecessors, the law applicable to succession is designated by the connecting factor of the nationality of the deceased at the time of death. At the same time, based on the Code of Civil Procedure, Polish courts have exclusive jurisdiction when it comes to immovables located in Poland, and have no jurisdiction with respect to immovables located abroad. Hence, the unity principle is limited by the rules on jurisdiction. This is still the case under the EU Succession Regulation which also provides for the unity principle. However, the limitation of the unity principle may occur only with respect to assets located outside the territory of the EU Member States bound by the EU Succession Regulation, as the location of assets does not have a decisive influence on jurisdiction.

The article is a comment on the Supreme Administrative Court's verdicts of 6 May 2015 (signatures: II OSK 2372/12 and II OSK 2419/13) by which confirmation of the acquisition of Polish nationality based on ius sanguinus principle was denied to a child as the legal parentage was established in the foreign judgement and birth certificate indicating the genetic father and his same sex partner as parents. The denial was justified by the public policy clause. The Court underlined that the principle of marriage as a union between one woman and one man and the rule that mother is a woman that gave birth to the child are of fundamental character. The aim of the article is the analysis of various public and private international law institutions that interconnect in the discussed verdict: rules on acquisition of citizenship, ius sanguinus principle confronted with same sex parentage, the notion of "parent" in the citizenship law, the principle of ex legerecognition of foreign judgements, public policy clause as an obstacle to that recognition and also right to respect for private life as defined in the jurisprudence of European Human Rights Court.
