Cassation dismissed: prior final judgment bars re-litigating disability condition for pension eligibility.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a final judgment denying a disability pension. The applicant argued that medical evidence proved incapacity occurred before a statutory deadline, but a prior final ruling had already rejected this claim. The court held that re-litigating facts already adjudicated by a final judgment violates the principle of res judicata and is legally impermissible.
