Supreme Court voids appeal judgment for omitting essential expert opinion on atypical disease progression under Art. 232 KPC.

The Supreme Court of Poland quashed the appellate court's judgment and remanded the case for retrial. The applicant sought disability pension, but the lower court rejected his appeal despite an ophthalmologist's suggestion that his eye condition might stem from a prior head injury. The court ruled that excluding the neurologist's opinion, which could explain the atypical disease progression, constituted a significant violation of procedural rules affecting the case outcome.
