By the Act of 4 July 2019 – on the amendment to the Code of Civil Procedure and some other acts, major modifications were made to the civil procedure. In accordance with the intention of the legislator, the introduced changes are to result in shortening the duration of proceedings before civil courts and improve the course of civil proceedings. Among the amended provisions, the legislator introduced completely new solutions to the Code of Civil Procedure, including mechanisms preventing the enforcement of time-barred claims and provisions limiting the possibility of using the charge of offsetting in the course of a civil trial. In connection with the above, this article will be devoted to discussion of selected issues related to the limitation period and deduction based on the amended civil trial.
