Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant was liable under Art. 52 AHVG for unpaid social insurance contributions
Decisione estratta
Yes. The court confirmed that the statutory conditions for employer liability were met and that the appellant had to compensate the AHV loss.
Motivazione estratta
The cantonal court correctly applied the settled case law on Art. 52 AHVG. The appellant remained a board member until 18 October 2002; the record did not justify taking evidence on an earlier resignation. His waiver of remuneration and focus on paying wages did not release him from his duties, and the allocation of payments to the indicated contribution arrears was proper. No contributory fault of the fund was shown.
