Social security court dismisses pension claim when disability arises after insufficient employment period under specific law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed Maria L.'s cassation appeal against a lower court's denial of a disability pension. The applicant argued that the 1976 Social Security Act exempted her from the five-year employment requirement because she ran a business, while the opposing party maintained that the 1982 Pension Act strictly required prior employment. The court ruled that the 1976 Act did not create an exemption from the employment period mandated by the 1982 Act, and since the applicant lacked the necessary employment history, the pension claim was invalid.
