Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a police officer seeking a nursing allowance supplement to his pension. Although the officer was classified as a Group 1 disabled person, the medical commission and court experts unanimously determined he did not require constant or long-term care from another person. The court ruled that the statutory right to the supplement is conditional upon this specific care need, which was factually established and not violated by the lower courts.
