Supreme Court dismissed pension appeal, ruling procedural rules apply unless Social Security Act specifies otherwise.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by the pensioner's legal successor against a lower court decision denying a pension payment. The appellant argued that the Social Security Act and Civil Procedure Code were misinterpreted regarding the timing of the pension renewal request. The court held that since the Social Security Act does not explicitly exclude civil procedure rules, those general rules govern the case, and the appellant failed to prove a procedural violation affecting the outcome.
