Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether a judge is entitled to one-time accident compensation for an accident on the way to work. The Social Insurance Fund argued that judges do not qualify as employees under social insurance laws because no social security contributions are deducted from their salaries. The court ruled in favor of the judge, establishing that the Social Insurance Fund must pay the compensation despite the lack of contributions, to prevent unconstitutional discrimination and ensure social security rights.
