Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the insured was fit for placement despite unpaid work in her husband’s business.
Decisione estratta
The federal court could not determine the exact extent of the unpaid activity and therefore could not confirm placement fitness; the matter had to be sent back for further investigation.
Motivazione estratta
The insured had stated she devoted about 20% of her working time to the business, but the record also suggested additional presence and flexibility. Because the effective availability could not be established reliably, the lower decisions had to be annulled and the case remitted.
