AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a social security agency against a lower court's decision to reject a retrial request. The agency argued that the applicant's lack of knowledge regarding the non-final nature of a medical decision constituted a new circumstance warranting a retrial under specific social security laws. The court ruled that such procedural defects do not meet the statutory requirements for a retrial in social security cases, which are strictly governed by the Code of Civil Procedure rather than the social security act.
