Resumo Omnilex

Z.________ brought a social-insurance action against K.________ seeking annulment of the cancellation of her insurance contract and continued coverage. At the conciliation hearing on 10 January 2011, the parties signed a settlement under which the cancellation was annulled, coverage was owed for the period from 1 January 2008 to 31 July 2010, and Z.________ would be affiliated with CSS Assurances from 1 August 2010. K.________ also acknowledged CHF 1,000 toward counsel fees. Because the claim was withdrawn, the court struck the case from the docket and ordered no court costs or party costs beyond the agreed amount.

Sumário Omnilex

Art. 94 al. 1 let. c LPA-VD; withdrawal of the claim after settlement: where the claimant withdraws the action following a conciliation agreement, the court removes the case from the docket. In such a procedural termination, no judicial fees are levied and no party costs are awarded unless the decision expressly provides otherwise. The settlement may record substantive concessions, but the court need not rule on the merits once the dispute has been withdrawn (consid. 1).
