The Supreme Court of Justice granted the review of a work injury pension calculation. The plaintiff argued for a specific wage base, while the opposing party contended for an earlier standard. The court ruled that the applicable minimum wage must be the one in force at the date of the worker's disability, not the date the pension was fixed.
