U.S. Court Reviews Polish Mogul Solorz's Family Succession Dispute Impacting Media Empire

Zygmunt Solorz, a Polish billionaire and media mogul known for founding Polsat, is embroiled in a legal dispute involving his children over the succession of his business empire. His three children, including a daughter residing in the U.S. and two sons based in Poland, are accused of manipulating him into prematurely signing documents that transfer control of two Liechtenstein-registered foundations, and effectively control over his companies. The children allegedly sent letters to company managers to prevent decisions that could undermine their control, prompting Solorz to remove his sons from supervisory roles at ZE PAK, Poland's largest private energy group. Solorz is currently petitioning a court in Liechtenstein to revoke the contested documents. Additionally, his legal team has sought a U.S. federal court order in California to compel his daughter to produce documents relevant to the case. This cross-jurisdictional legal battle highlights complex issues of family dynamics and corporate control within a multi-billion-dollar media and business empire.
