Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court correctly defined the object of the dispute and the relevant period for the helplessness allowance.
Solution extraite
The cantonal judgment was based on an incorrect delimitation of the dispute; the period after the opposition decision still had to be examined, so the judgment could not stand.
Motifs extraits
Social-insurance courts must generally assess legality based on the facts existing when the contested decision was issued. The cantonal court confused the date of the original application with the date of the opposition decision and therefore failed to examine entitlement for the period actually covered by the contested decision.
