The Administrative Court overturned the Social Board's rejection of a military aid application, ruling that the benefit was intended for the serviceman himself rather than his spouse. The court noted that since the couple had no children, the specific rules regarding dependents did not apply to them. Consequently, the court ordered the case to be reconsidered under provisions allowing the serviceman to claim a portion of living expenses from his own resources.

Sosiaalilautakunta oli hylännyt asevelvollisen sotilasavustushakemuksen,

koska hänen avovaimonsa ei tulojensa perusteella

ollut riippuvainen asevelvollisen antamasta avusta.

Lääninoikeus kumosi sosiaalilautakunnan päätöksen ja palautti

asian uudelleen käsiteltäväksi, koska kysymyksessä ei ollut

asevelvollisen omaiselle vaan asevelvolliselle itselleen

annettava sotilasavustus. Asevelvolliseen ja hänen avopuolisoonsa

ei sovellettu omaisia koskevia säännöksiä, koska heillä

ei ollut lapsia. Yhteisasunnossa asuvalle asevelvolliselle

asumiskulut voidaan korvata hänen omaa osuuttaan vastaavalta

osin.
