The article analyses two major issues stemming from the amendment of the Civil Procedure Code and concerning the enforcement of an obligation to perform an act that cannot be performed by another person in the debtor’s stead and whose performance depends solely on the debtor’s will (so called irreplaceable act). The former issue refers to the existence of two models of enforcement measures stipulated in the Civil Procedure Code which are applied in the enforcement of irreplaceable acts, i.e. a fine changeable into detention and a so called compulsory sum (astreinte). The author finds such a situation unsatisfactory. The latter refers to the regulation which became effective in 2023 and provides for the enforcement of an obligation to file a statement of a relevant content and form in personal rights protection cases. Pursuant to Art. 1050 § 4 of the Civil Procedure Code, in that case the only enforcement measure consists in threatening the debtor with a fine of up to PLN 15,000 and ordering the debtor to publish a relevant statement in Monitor Sądowy i Gospodarczy at the debtor’s cost. Such a regulation is considered defective and it is postulated that it should be removed.
Keywords: enforcement of non-cash claims, irreplaceable acts, filing a statement of a relevant content and form, compulsory sum, fine changeable into detention
