Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court committed a formal denial of justice by failing to rule on vocational rehabilitation measures
Extracted holding
Yes. The first-instance court had to decide on the expressly raised claim for professional rehabilitation measures and its omission violated the prohibition of denial of justice.
Extracted reasoning
The claimant had clearly requested both a disability pension and professional measures. Since the cantonal court addressed only the pension and not the separate claim for rehabilitation measures, it failed to decide a submitted issue, which constitutes a formal denial of justice under Art. 29(1) of the Constitution.
