התערבות ערכאת הערעור בפיצוי ובנכות תפקודית: 2 מסלולים ו-4 פסקי דין

An appellate court in Israel intervenes in the amount of compensation awarded by a lower court when there is a clear and obvious error in the overall sum or when the lower court's reasoning for its decision is insufficient. While such intervention is generally exercised sparingly, as the determination of functional disability and compensation falls within the trial court's discretion, the article highlights that intervention still occurs, as demonstrated by four civil appeals from 2024 to 2026 that were accepted, at least in part. The "missing reasoning" track is presented as a more effective path for intervention compared to proving an obvious error in the overall compensation amount.
