Questão jurídica principal
Whether the pension revision from a three-quarter pension to a quarter pension was justified by a relevant change in health status and work capacity.
Decisão extraída
The court held that the decisive medical findings showed an improved health status and a rise in residual work capacity to 80% for suitable light work, so the revision was justified.
Fundamentação extraída
The disappearance of radicular symptoms constituted a relevant factual change. The Federal Supreme Court accepted the lower court's assessment of the expert evidence and found no basis to treat the case as merely a different medical opinion on an unchanged condition.
