Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court and insurer were bound by the prior remand judgment granting a 50% disability pension.
Extracted holding
Yes. The remand judgment had settled the right to a pension at 50% from 1 September 2004 and was binding on both the lower court and the insurer.
Extracted reasoning
A remand judgment binds the authority to which the case is returned, and the legal point already finally decided cannot be reopened in later proceedings once the Federal Tribunal has confirmed it.
