Resumo Omnilex

During the administrative social-insurance proceedings, the insurer agreed to resume payment of the daily allowances. As a result, the court awarded the appellant a procedural indemnity of CHF 1,000. The merits dispute therefore no longer required further adjudication, but the appellant still obtained compensation for the proceedings.

Sumário Omnilex

Administrative procedure; social insurance; costs/indemnity: when the respondent concedes the claim during the appeal proceedings by resuming payment of the daily allowances, the dispute on the merits becomes moot, but the appellant may still be awarded a procedural indemnity for the costs incurred in pursuing the appeal, provided the circumstances justify such compensation.
