According to the Polish law, the latter is obliged to periodic pecuniary payments while the individual still occupies the apartment after the tenancy contract ends. However, it is not clear whether these payments should be assessed as damages for the profits lost by the owner or rather as rent for using the flat. In the author’s opinion, the distinctions should be made between the situation of the apartments owned by the municipality and the private fl ats. The fi rst situation, common in Poland, where municipalities deals with issues of homelessness, may be assessed similarly to the tenancy contract. Yet, according to the general rule applying to the private apartments, the discussed payments may be viewed only as damages, to which the landlord is entitled.}, title={Charakter prawny odszkodowania należnego od osoby zajmującej lokal bez tytułu prawnego w świetle ustawy o ochronie lokatorów}, type={text}, keywords={tenancy, contract of lease, lease of premises, rent, damages}, }
