Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim for compensation and pension following a workplace accident involving finger amputation. The court held that the statute of limitations began when the plaintiff learned of the amputation on December 2, 1992, rather than when the disability pension was awarded. Consequently, the claim filed in 1996 was found to be time-barred under the Civil Code.
Regesto Legislator
Generato dall'IAArt. 442 § 1 KC; Art. 444 KC: The statute of limitations for bodily injury begins when the victim discovers the injury and the obligor, where discovery of injury means awareness of the health damage causing loss of work capacity, typically occurring at the time of medical treatment.
