The Administrative Court ruled that an adult, unmarried son living with his 69-year-old father in the son's own house qualifies as a cohabitant under the Social Assistance Act. The applicant argued for a lower benefit rate based on living with parents, while the authority contended the specific living arrangement met the criteria for a cohabitant. The court determined the factual circumstances satisfied the statutory definition of a cohabitant, resulting in the higher benefit rate.

Asiassa oli muun ohella kysymys siitä, oliko täysi-ikäinen toimeentulotuen hakija toimeentulotuesta annetun lain 9 pykälän 1 momentin 2 kohdassa tarkoitettu yhteistaloudessa asuva henkilö, jonka perusosa on 85 % yksin asuvan perusosasta, vai 3 kohdassa tarkoitettu vanhempansa luona asuva henkilö, jonka perusosa on 73 % yksin asuvan perusosasta.

Hakija oli 43-vuotias perheetön henkilö. Hän omisti omakotitalon, jossa hakemuksen tekohetkellä samassa taloudessa hänen kanssaan asui hänen 69-vuotias isänsä. Hallinto-oikeus katsoi, että hakija oli näissä olosuhteissa toimeentulotuesta annetun lain 9 §:n 2 kohdassa tarkoitettu yhteistaloudessa asuva henkilö.
