Question juridique clé
Whether the insured’s somatoform pain disorder and associated depression constitute an invalidating health impairment entitling her to a disability pension.
Solution extraite
No; the court found the disorder was still overcomeable by reasonable effort and did not reach the threshold of invalidity.
Motifs extraits
The court accepted the medical diagnoses but held that the legal criteria for an exceptional non-overcomeable pain disorder were not sufficiently met: no severe, durable psychiatric comorbidity and the remaining criteria were not present with enough intensity and constancy.
