Supreme Court dismisses appeal against social insurance pension case where claim value is below ten thousand zloty threshold.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Elżbieta K. against a lower court's rejection of her claim for a disability pension. The appellant argued that the new Civil Procedure Code allowed appeals in social insurance matters regardless of the dispute's value, but the court found this interpretation incorrect. The court ruled that since the pension right was already established and the annual value of the dispute was only 4,500 zloty, the appeal was inadmissible under the general rule requiring a value of at least 10,000 zloty.
