Supreme Court dismisses cassation on early pension, upholding lower court's verification of employment termination reasons.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Antoni K. against the Social Insurance Office's refusal of early retirement benefits. The applicant relied on a work certificate stating his employment was terminated under specific statutory grounds, while the Social Insurance Office and lower courts found the termination was actually mutual and initiated by the employee. The court ruled that the existence of the statutory reasons listed in the certificate does not preclude their verification in the pension proceedings, allowing the lower court to rely on findings from a related severance payment case.
