Key legal question
Whether the IV office was entitled to appeal the cantonal pension judgment despite having granted a pension in its own decision.
Extracted holding
Yes. The office that issued the decision and participated below may appeal; a request for a worse outcome is admissible even if it goes beyond the original claim.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 62 ATSG and Art. 41 IVV provide a sufficient legal basis for appeal standing; the lack of binding force to party requests before the cantonal court also allows such a request before the Federal Supreme Court.
