Résumé Omnilex

The dispute concerned whether a pension fund could reduce its occupational pension benefits for alleged overinsurance by deducting AI benefits paid to compensate the insured person's incapacity to perform household work. The court held that such AI benefits do not cover the same loss and therefore cannot be offset. It further ordered the pension fund to pay moratory interest on the overdue benefits.

Regeste Omnilex

OPP.2 24; overinsurance in occupational pension benefits does not permit deduction of disability insurance benefits intended to compensate incapacity in household activities, since such prestations do not correspond to the same insured loss. Where the fund remains in default, moratory interest is owed on the overdue pension benefits.

Question juridique clé

Whether AI benefits paid to compensate inability to perform household work may be deducted from pension fund benefits as alleged overcompensation.

Solution extraite

No. Such AI benefits cannot be offset against the pension fund's prestations for purposes of overinsurance.

Motifs extraits

The AI payments compensate the insured's invalidity in domestic work, not the same loss covered by the occupational pension benefits, so they are not deductible in the overinsurance calculation.

Question juridique clé

Whether the pension fund must pay moratory interest on the amounts owed.

Solution extraite

Yes. The fund is condemned to pay default interest on the outstanding benefits.

Motifs extraits

Because the pension fund owed the benefits and failed to pay them in due time, interest for late payment is due.
