The Supreme Court dismissed the pension agency's cassation appeal regarding a suspended pension claim filed by a resident abroad. The applicant had met all eligibility criteria but the lower courts suspended payment due to her residence outside Poland, citing a specific statutory provision. The Court ruled that the law does not suspend rights if the applicant establishes a bank account or designates a recipient, thereby allowing the pension to be paid.
