Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant was liable under Art. 52 AHVG for unpaid employer social security contributions.
Solution extraite
The prerequisites for subsidiary organ liability were met; the appeal did not show any reason to set aside the cantonal decision.
Motifs extraits
The company repeatedly defaulted on contributions, was dunned and pursued, and was in poor liquidity as early as 2000. Sanation measures were begun too late, at the latest only after the contribution shortfall had sharply increased in April 2002. The harmful conduct was attributable to the appellant as sole board member with oversight duties.
