AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Alexander A. against a decision denying work accident disability benefits. The applicant argued that the appellate court failed to comprehensively consider the accident protocol, yet the court noted that expert medical opinions had already analyzed this protocol and reached a conclusion. The court ruled that since the experts relied on the protocol's content, the appellate court's consideration of their opinions constituted a full review of the evidence, making the procedural complaint invalid.
