Insurance contract dispute dismissed; disability assessed at final stabilization within three-year limit per policy terms.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Slovenia dismissed the revision against a second-instance judgment regarding an insurance contract dispute. The court held that the lower courts correctly applied the policy terms, which mandate assessing disability only after treatment concludes and consequences stabilize, no later than three years post-injury. Consequently, the insurer's payment based on the disability status at that specific time was deemed legally correct, and the plaintiff's claim for a higher amount based on later conditions was rejected.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArticle 14(2) of the General Conditions for Non-Accidental Personal Insurance; Article 100 of the Insurance Contracts Act: Disability level is determined after treatment concludes and consequences stabilize, but no later than three years; subsequent conditions are excluded from the insurance sum calculation.

Sodišči prve in druge stopnje sta pravilno uporabili materialno (pogodbeno) pravo, ko sta določbo drugega odstavka 14. člena Splošnih pogojev za nezgodno zavarovanje oseb razumeli tako, kot se glasi (ker je jasna, tudi ni bilo potrebe po uporabi posebnih razlagalnih pravil - 100. člena ZOR), se pravi, da se stopnja invalidnosti določi po končanem zdravljenju, ko se posledice poškodbe ustalijo, vendar najkasneje po preteku treh let. Stanje, kakršno je bilo po tem časovnem mejniku, se pri izračunavanju višine zavarovalne vsote zato ne upošteva.
