Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the Social Insurance Institution's appeal regarding the start date for calculating interest on an early pension. The facts show the applicant's 15-year special work period was legally established by the first-instance court, which the second-instance court merely confirmed without making new findings. The court ruled that the 30-day interest period must begin from the date of the first-instance judgment, not the final appeal judgment, because the legal prerequisite was fully met at that earlier stage.
