AI generated

The Supreme Court allowed the pensioner's appeal against the Social Security Office's decision denying early retirement benefits. The applicant argued that the late submission of documents was justified by force majeure, while the Social Security Office contended the application was procedurally invalid due to missing deadlines. The court ruled that the applicant's circumstances warranted an exception to the strict time limits, thereby granting the pension right.
