Question juridique clé
Whether the claimant made a plausible showing of a relevant worsening of health justifying a new disability benefits request.
Solution extraite
No. The medical materials did not show an aggravation affecting residual work capacity in adapted work.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 87(3) and (4) RAI, a new application after a final refusal is admissible only if changed facts are made plausible. The expert report showed only objective worsening of vestibular syndrome affecting the old occupation, while the relevant symptoms had already been known and no deterioration in adapted work was established.
