The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Czesława G. against the Social Insurance Institution regarding her pension entitlement. The appellate court found that the applicant's claim for additional employment periods was unsupported by clear, consistent, and precise evidence, noting significant contradictions between her written declarations in the pension procedure and her oral testimony in court. The court ruled that allowing such unverified periods would violate the requirement for reliable proof, as the applicant and witnesses altered their statements to secure benefits after initial denial.
