The Supreme Court dismissed the applicant's claim for a pension based on a terminated employment relationship. The applicant argued that the pension scheme rules were invalidly changed after the employment ended, affecting the pension amount. The court held that the applicant failed to prove the changes were legally ineffective or that they entitled them to a higher pension under the new rules.
