Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the applicant's cassation appeal against a social insurance court's decision denying disability pension. The lower court relied solely on a new MRI report to override earlier expert opinions that found the applicant capable of work. The Supreme Court ruled that the lower court violated procedural law by failing to seek additional expert opinions or reconcile conflicting medical findings in a specialized field.
