Key legal question
Whether the lower court arbitrarily assessed the medical evidence and could set the onset of the reduced work capacity in 2002.
Extracted holding
The cantonal court did not assess the evidence arbitrarily; it could rely on the judicial expertise and the earlier medical file to find that the residual capacity applied since 2002.
Extracted reasoning
The experts' reports were probative, additional medical evidence was unlikely to add anything decisive, and the court could plausibly infer that symptoms, pain, and functional limitations had remained substantially unchanged since the 2002 accident.
