Effect of withdrawing pension request on prior administrative termination of police service under military pension law
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe High Court of Cassation and Justice, acting through its Panel for Resolving Questions of Law, issued a mandatory interpretation establishing that the withdrawal of a pension request prior to the issuance of a pension decision does not reverse the termination of a police officer's service relationship if that termination was already effectuated by an administrative act. This ruling resolves a question of law referred by the Oradea Court of Appeals in an administrative and fiscal dispute concerning the legal consequences of withdrawing a state pension application under military legislation. The court determined that, under the combined interpretation of Article 61(2) of Law No. 223/2015 on state military pensions and Article 69(1)(a) of Law No. 360/2002 on the Police Officer Statute, the administrative act terminating the service relationship remains in force and is not undone by the subsequent retraction of the pension claim.
