Question juridique clé
Whether the 28 November 2005 withdrawal of the first AI application was valid
Solution extraite
The withdrawal was valid as a withdrawal of an application, not a waiver of known benefits, and it did not conflict with the insured's or social welfare interests.
Motifs extraits
Art. 23 LPGA did not apply because no enforceable benefits were yet due. By analogy, a withdrawal of an AI claim is admissible if written and if no legitimate interests oppose it; those conditions were met here.
