Questione giuridica chiave
Whether a relevant change in health condition occurred between the prior final denial and the 19 December 2007 decision.
Decisione estratta
No legally relevant deterioration was proven; the assessment of the insured person's work capacity remained based on the interdisziplinäre expertise and not on the treating doctors' opinions.
Motivazione estratta
The Court held that the comparison period was the earlier final merits decision. Later medical reports could be used only to infer the relevant period. The appellate court's factual findings that the condition had not worsened were not manifestly incorrect.
