Question juridique clé
Whether the damages claim under Art. 52 AHVG was time-barred after the 2003 legislative change from forfeiture to limitation.
Solution extraite
The renewed 2007 assessment was already time-barred under the new Art. 52(3) AHVG, because the fund had more than two years after 1 January 2003 to re-fix the claim and could have interrupted limitation.
Motifs extraits
The pre-2003 forfeiture period had been preserved by timely filing, but this did not exclude application of the new limitation regime. The new period began on 1 January 2003, and no interrupting act occurred before 11 June 2007.
