Key legal question
Whether the insured person was entitled to a full disability pension from 1 August 2009 after a renewed application.
Extracted holding
The insured person retained entitlement to a full disability pension; the cantonal judgment granting it was upheld.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Court held that the cantonal court did not arbitrarily find a relevant change in health status. The earlier medical assessment was prognostic, whereas the later expert opinion showed a distinct psychiatric disorder independent of addiction and a total incapacity for work.
