Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal was admissible without prior cantonal reconsideration of the cost award.
Decisione estratta
The cantonal reconsideration remedy was unavailable in this social-insurance pension case, so cantonal remedies were exhausted.
Motivazione estratta
Because the procedure must be simple and rapid under Art. 73(2) LPP, cantonal law could not provide multiple appeal instances for costs; exhaustion was satisfied.
