Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against the Social Insurance Office's refusal of early retirement benefits to Maria B. The applicant claimed that pre-1983 farm work should supplement her contributory record to meet the 20-year requirement, but the court found her total periods exceeded the necessary threshold. The court ruled that such farm work is treated as a contributory period solely for filling gaps when the sum of contributory and non-contributory periods is shorter than the statutory requirement.
