Supreme Court allows extraordinary review to correct social security denial due to procedural flaws and lack of defense rights.

The Supreme Court granted an extraordinary review to overturn a lower court's dismissal of a disability pension claim, despite the review being filed late. The applicant argued that his disability arose during employment or within 18 months of its cessation, yet the lower court denied benefits based on insufficient work history in the preceding decade. The Court ruled that denying state-guaranteed benefits without a proper defense or clear legal explanation violates both procedural and substantive law, as well as the rule of law.
