Supreme Court dismisses expert opinion on legal interpretation, remanding case for independent judicial construction of law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal and remanded the case to the appellate court for a new decision. The plaintiff argued that an expert's opinion on the interpretation of a specific regulation regarding rationalization projects should have been decisive. The court ruled that such opinions cannot serve as the basis for judgment because the interpretation of legal provisions and the meaning of 'special knowledge' under Article 278 § 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure belongs exclusively to the court.
