Questione giuridica chiave
Whether unemployment benefits paid to the respondent were clearly unlawful and could be reclaimed retroactively under reconsideration rules.
Decisione estratta
No. Given the involuntary loss of the employer's dispositional freedom after the old business was abandoned, the benefit payments were not manifestly incorrect.
Motivazione estratta
The Federal Court accepted the cantonal finding that the husband had to give up the old business after the franchise termination and no longer had freedom to continue employing the respondent in the old business. SECO's objections were based on conjecture and did not show manifestly incorrect fact-finding.
