Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the appellant's appeal against the appellate court's dismissal of the cassation. The appellant argued that work injury claims for pension and lump-sum compensation should be cumulatively valued under Article 191 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The court ruled that these claims constitute a single subject of dispute, meaning their values must be added together to determine the appeal threshold. Consequently, the appeal was accepted because the combined value exceeded the statutory minimum required for cassation.

Generato dall'IAArt. 392 § 1 k.p.c.; Art. 191 k.p.c.; Art. 21 k.p.c.; Art. 22 k.p.c.; Art. 393 § 19 k.p.c.: In work injury cases involving both pension and lump-sum claims, the subject of the appeal is the cumulative value of all claims, and the fact that pension claims are admissible regardless of value does not negate their economic character for valuation purposes.
