Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the Social Security Fund's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that denied a pension recipient the obligation to repay overpaid benefits. The recipient had continued working after receiving a pension without formally terminating her employment contracts, yet the court found no obvious legal error in the lower court's application of the Social Security Act. The court determined that the specific provisions regarding overpayment and the notice requirements were correctly applied, and the cassation lacked sufficient grounds for reversal.
