Supreme Court dismissed pension claim because training allowance does not count as contributory period.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Leszek D. against a lower court decision denying his right to a disability pension. The court found that the training allowance received between August and September 2001 did not constitute a contributory period under the relevant social security laws. Consequently, the required 18-month gap between the end of the contributory period and the onset of disability was not met, leading to the rejection of the claim.
