The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of Jadwiga S.-C.'s claim for pension equalization, ordering a retrial. The plaintiff argued that her work in a prosecution service collegium before August 1, 1990, should count toward her pension-eligible service period. The Court ruled that excluding this period would create an unjustified distinction between officials with identical pre-1998 rights, violating the principle of acquired rights.
