8-year-old Zosia "does not exist" in Poland. NSA's decision regarding a child raised by two mothers

The Supreme Administrative Court of Poland addressed the legal issue of registering a foreign birth certificate for a child with same-sex parents. The case involves Sofia, born in Spain to a Polish mother and an Irish mother, whose birth certificate and temporary passport were issued in Spain. The Polish authorities denied the transcription of her birth certificate in 2019, leading to a legal battle supported by the Ombudsman. The court's recent decision left the matter unresolved due to procedural issues, disappointing advocates who argue for equal legal protection for children of same-sex couples. They plan to pursue further legal action and advocate for marriage equality legislation in Poland, where approximately 50,000 children are raised in rainbow families.
