Supreme Court dismisses appeal when party fails to prove non-fault delay under procedural law.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Barbara S. against a decision rejecting her appeal in a disability pension case. The applicant argued that a hospital stay and post-surgery recovery prevented her from filing the appeal on time, but the court found the medical record insufficient to prove she was unable to act. Consequently, the court ruled that the burden of proving non-fault delay lies solely with the applicant and cannot be supplemented by formal defect remedies.
