Supreme Court dismisses appeal from social security decision based on res judicata regarding final court judgment.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the applicant's appeal against a social security decision, ruling that the matter was already finally adjudicated. The lower courts had granted disability benefits based on a final judgment from May 1995, which the applicant later attempted to challenge via an appeal against a subsequent administrative decision. The Court held that allowing this new proceeding violated the principle of res judicata, as the administrative decision merely executed the final court ruling.
