Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that rejected a work accident claim. The plaintiff argued her husband's death was a work accident, but the court found the medical evidence showed he was fit for work and his death resulted from a pre-existing heart condition. The court held that merely admitting an unfit worker to labor does not constitute an external cause; a specific external factor must actually act upon the worker's compromised body.
