Court dismissed appeal; athlete receiving sports scholarship without full-time study is covered by employee social insurance, not self-employed scheme.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a social insurance office decision requiring a handball player to pay self-employed contributions. The court found that although the athlete had a contract with a sports club, he was not studying full-time and thus did not qualify for the self-employed exemption under the relevant social insurance act. Consequently, the court ruled that the athlete must be insured under the employee social insurance system because he was not studying full-time and did not fall under another social insurance system.
