The court held that unduly paid social insurance benefits may not be reclaimed by analogy to Art. 47 AVS where the insured acted in good faith and repayment would cause financial hardship. Finding both conditions met, it annulled the fund's reimbursement decision.

Sumário Omnilex

Art. 47 AVS (by analogy); restitution of unduly paid social insurance benefits; good faith and financial hardship as cumulative exceptions. Reimbursement may not be ordered where the recipient could reasonably rely on the correctness of the payment and repayment would endanger the person's financial situation. The court must assess both requirements concretely; if they are fulfilled, the restitution order is to be annulled (consid. implicit).
