Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a railway employee seeking an early pension. The employee argued for a pension based on 40 years of service, but the court found the employment contract was terminated due to illness and exhaustion of sick leave benefits, not economic reasons. Consequently, the statutory prerequisites for an early pension were not met, rendering the claim inadmissible regardless of the service duration.
