Social security pension dispute dismissed as case value under 5,000 PLN threshold for appeal admissibility.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a worker against a social security office decision regarding his disability pension. The court determined that the dispute concerned only the amount of the pension, not the right to it, resulting in a subject matter value of 2,000 PLN. Consequently, the appeal was inadmissible because it fell below the 5,000 PLN threshold required for admissibility under the Civil Procedure Code, regardless of the appellant's arguments about potential separate damages.
