Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court wrongly assessed the medical evidence and denied disability benefits.
Solution extraite
The medical evidence was assessed without manifest error; the cantonal court could rely on the overall file, including surveillance and regional medical opinions, and reject the claimed full incapacity.
Motifs extraits
The Federal Court held that the lower court did not rely only on the later medical-administrative opinions, but also considered the expert reports. The surveillance evidence supported the finding of symptom exaggeration. The lack of personal examination by some doctors did not invalidate their opinions in light of the file. The psychiatric disorder was, in any event, subject to the presumption of overcomeability, which was not rebutted.
