The Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review of a disability pension claim filed after the 1991 pension revaluation law took effect. The applicant argued that employment periods prior to November 1991 should count toward eligibility, but the court found the new law strictly required contributions or specific non-contributory periods calculated under its new rules. Consequently, the court held that employment periods before the law's enactment were inadmissible unless specific pre-enactment conditions were met, which were not satisfied.
