Supreme Court dismisses appeal; drunk break in return trip ends work accident route under Polish law.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling denying agricultural insurance compensation. The insured husband died in a traffic accident after stopping to drink alcohol, which the court held interrupted his return journey from work. The court ruled that entering a state of drunkenness breaks the continuity required for the incident to be considered a work-related accident under the relevant statute.
