Supreme Court dismissed extraordinary review for not violating procedural law regarding conflicting expert medical opinions on disability date.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review filed by a railway employee seeking disability pension benefits. The lower appellate court had reversed a first-instance decision by re-evaluating medical records and expert opinions to establish a different date for the onset of disability than the court-appointed expert had suggested. The court ruled that the appellate court's assessment of the documentary evidence did not constitute a flagrant violation of procedural law, even though it differed from the expert's specific opinion on the disability's origin.
