Hi there -
as I ask above: I'd like to check if author/owner of given object belongs to my user group.
I can get:

{def $user=fetch( 'user', 'current_user' )}
Group(s): {$user.groups|implode(', ')} <br />

and this lists groups I belong to, but how to check if content author belongs to one or more of my user groups?

Well,
searching brings no solution :(

{def $user=fetch( 'user', 'current_user' )}
Group(s): {$user.groups|implode(', ')} <br />

Shows current users' groups, but I want to get groups of user with for example id=523

I didn't find apropriate function :(
Function user - according to docs - can fetch current_user but how to fetch user of given id??

You can fetch user object, then access user_account. Try with this code:

{ * Replace user_account with your attribute user account name * }
{def user_object=fetch( 'content', 'object', hash( 'object_id', 14 ) )}
   {$user_object.data_map.user_account.content.groups|attribute(show,1)}
