The article deals with an analysis of the draft amendment to the Polish inheritance law, presented by the Ministry of Justice. The Authors make a number of critical comments and proposals for changes by taking into consideration the comparative law context. It is undoubtful that the reform is indispensable. But there are some doubts about the scope and shape of the planned changes. For instance, it is impossible to accept the proposed restriction of the circle of statutory heirs, especially for the reason given in the explanatory memorandum to the presented legal act – i.e. to improve the efficiency and speed of judicial procedures. Similarly, the “new” premise of unworthiness poses a lot of questions and cannot be accepted in its proposed form. It is also high time for the legislator to enable the parents of the minor heir to submit effectively a declaration of acceptance or rejection of inheritance. But the suggested solution to this problem is far from satisfactory. The Authors approve the limitation cum viribus hereditatis of liability for debts under the succession if the statutory heir is a commune or State Treasury (acting as “compulsory” heirs).
