Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the 1998 settlement-based invalidity pension could be reopened by reconsideration under Art. 53(2) ATSG
Extrahierter Entscheid
The settlement was not manifestly incorrect in light of the legal and factual uncertainty existing in 1998, so reconsideration was not permitted.
Extrahierte Begründung
A settlement may be reconsidered only under stricter conditions than an ordinary decision. In 1998 the insurer had a discretionary margin on causation, the applicable adequacy test, the degree of incapacity, and the invalidity assessment. The agreed 80% pension therefore fell within that margin.
