Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the claim against the employer for returning overpaid pension benefits. The court found that the employer had submitted truthful documents to the social insurance fund, including valid employment records, despite the existence of a sham employment contract. Consequently, the employer could not be held liable under the statute for data inaccuracies because the information provided to the fund was factually correct at the time of submission.
