The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Emilian W. against a lower court's denial of his war veteran disability pension. The appellant argued that the appellate court violated procedural rules by failing to explicitly cite the legal basis for rejecting his claim regarding his internment in the USSR. The court ruled that since the lower courts had already thoroughly established the lack of a causal link between the appellant's disability and wartime actions, this procedural omission did not influence the final result.
