The voted resolution concerns the possibility for a legal person to demand pecuniary compensation for violation of personal rights. The Supreme Court assumed that Art. 448 § 1 of the Civil Code applies to legal persons accordingly. As a result, the means of protection of personal rights available to all civil law entities are the same. The approving comment on this resolution emphasized the consequences of violating personal rights for the functioning of a legal person in the socioeconomic space. Attention was paid to the systemic change in the regulation of the manner of fulfilling the obligation to submit a declaration of will in the event of violation of personal rights. It was emphasized that excluding the possibility of granting pecuniary compensation to a legal person would make the protection of its personal rights illusory and insufficient.
