Has anyone ever challenged the pension abatement

If you have a public sector pension and take up employment in the public sector your pension is subject to abatement. If you take up private sector work it is not abated.

This seems to be unfair. Your pension is based on your service and you have paid into it so why should you lose out through abatement? It is also a disincentive for anyone to remain the the public sector if they have done their 40 years.
Has this been challenged in the courts yet?
