Subject of the dispute – challenging the refusal of the Main Directorate of the Pension Fund of Ukraine to transfer a person from a disability pension to a service pension.
Main arguments of the court: The Supreme Court referred to its previous decisions, which clearly defined that for persons dismissed from the police and applied after 19.02.2022, pension assignment is carried out exclusively based on the calendar length of service. The court established that at the moment of the plaintiff’s application (11.11.2022), the calendar length of service was 20 years, which is insufficient for assigning a service pension, therefore, the Pension Fund’s refusal is legal.
Court decision – to leave the cassation appeal without satisfaction, previous court decisions – unchanged.
