Social insurance appeal dismissed; Supreme Court voids first-instance ruling due to improper judge composition lacking ministerial authorization.

The Supreme Court voided the first-instance judgment and remanded the case for retrial because the presiding judge lacked the required ministerial authorization to lead the panel. The lower court had rejected the applicant's appeal for missing a procedural deadline, but the Supreme Court found the composition of the court itself invalid under the Code of Civil Procedure. Consequently, the Supreme Court exercised its power to examine the invalidity of the proceedings ex officio, rendering the substantive decision on the deadline moot.
