II UKN 647/99
AI generated
Supreme Court dismissed cassation on statute of limitations, finding no legal bar to civil claims for work accidents between 1977 and 1990.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Józef S. against the Regional Court's decision denying supplementary disability pension. The plaintiff argued that the ten-year limitation period under the Civil Code had expired, while the defendant relied on the same provision to bar the claim. The court determined that the limitation period had indeed expired on January 30, 1980, and the plaintiff failed to provide a valid legal justification for the nearly eighteen-year delay in filing the suit.
