Questão jurídica principal
Whether the former spouse was entitled to the supplementary disability pension after the divorce on the basis of legitimate expectations until 31 December 2007.
Decisão extraída
The official information created a protected reliance basis, so the supplementary pension had to continue until 31 December 2007.
Fundamentação extraída
Although the right ceased under the statutory scheme after divorce, the incomplete official information from 27 September 2004 justified trust protection. The later abolition of such pensions as of 1 January 2008 meant there was no excessively long binding effect; therefore the private reliance interest prevailed.
