Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court set aside the lower court's dismissal of the pension claim due to a failure to examine witnesses. The applicant had submitted witness statements to the social insurance agency, which the court ignored, arguing the applicant's absence and the witnesses' low credibility were sufficient grounds. The court ruled that the lower court violated procedural duties by not conducting a comprehensive fact-finding process, necessitating a retrial.
