Omnilex summary

The appellant appealed a decision of the Ticino cantonal compensation fund regarding supplementary benefits. While the appeal was pending, the fund issued a new decision that granted the appellant's requests. Counsel therefore withdrew the appeal. The Cantonal Insurance Court held that the case had become moot, struck it from the docket, waived court fees and costs, and ordered the compensation fund to pay CHF 500 in party compensation.

Omnilex headnote

Mootness after subsequent administrative decision; withdrawal of appeal: where the respondent adopts a new decision fully accommodating the appellant's requests, the pending appeal becomes devoid of object and is struck from the docket. In such circumstances, the court may waive court fees and order the respondent to pay party compensation to the appellant, in particular where the proceedings were terminated by the respondent's subsequent corrective decision (consid. 1-2).
