Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court remanded the case to the Court of Appeal in Gdańsk for a new evaluation of the applicant's work capacity. The lower court incorrectly denied the pension based solely on medical opinions without considering the applicant's qualifications, age, and the objective possibility of re-employment. The court ruled that the second-instance judge failed to conduct a proper evidentiary procedure and ignored the applicant's arguments regarding his ability to work.
