The widow appealed the Social Security Board's decision denying her deceased husband's disability pension to the Insurance Court. The court held that the husband had not met the statutory requirements for the pension while alive, rendering the claim invalid posthumously. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed as the underlying entitlement never existed.
