Supreme Court partially allowed cassation appeal regarding employer liability for workplace accident and interest calculation errors.
Legislator-Zusammenfassung
KI-generiertThe Supreme Court partially revoked the appellate court's judgment in a workplace accident case involving an employee and a retail company. The plaintiff sought damages for compensation, pain and suffering, and medical costs after an injury sustained while working. The court found the lower court erred by failing to apply the comparative negligence provision and by improperly assessing medical damage without additional expert opinions, while also incorrectly calculating statutory interest dates.
