Supreme Court dismissed appeal; new pension rules do not apply to teachers who met old conditions before July 1, 2004.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a pension award granted to a teacher. The court found that while the new Social Security Act excluded sick leave periods from pension calculations, these restrictions did not apply to teachers who fulfilled all eligibility criteria under the old Teachers' Card Act before July 1, 2004. Consequently, the applicant's right to a pension vested upon meeting those pre-existing conditions, rendering the new statutory limitations inapplicable to her case.
