Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the 1997 victim-support application also preserved a later claim for loss-of-earnings compensation under the two-year time limit.
Decisione estratta
The 1997 filing did not, even implicitly, contain a claim for loss-of-earnings compensation and therefore did not preserve that claim within the statutory deadline.
Motivazione estratta
The application mentioned only uncovered therapy costs, a spa stay, and moral damages. It did not state or suggest any reduced earning capacity or future economic loss. The investigative duty of the authority extends only to the claims actually raised; it does not require searching for additional unasserted damage heads.
