Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal became moot after the respondent revoked its damage decision and renounced the claim
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The challenged decision was withdrawn during the proceedings, so the appeal lost its object and the case had to be struck from the docket.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 53 para. 3 LPGA and Art. 83 LPA-VD, the authority could reconsider and revoke its decision during the appeal. Once the respondent renounced the claim, there was no longer a live dispute.
