Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim for a supplementary pension benefit after resolving a legal question regarding the exclusivity of pension benefits. The plaintiff argued that internal company regulations allowed for a supplementary payment when transitioning to a new employer, while the defendant contended that the statutory rule prohibits any further pension benefits once one is received. The court held that Article 921 § 2 of the Labor Code explicitly excludes the acquisition of a new pension right, thereby rejecting the supplementary benefit claim.
