Insurance court denies widow's family pension due to insufficient continuous marriage duration after remarriage.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Insurance Court dismissed the widow's claim for a family pension because her remarriage did not meet the statutory requirement of continuous cohabitation for at least three years before her death. The applicant argued that the relationship should be recognized, but the court found the marriage was not continuous for the requisite period. Consequently, the court upheld the Social Security Board's decision to deny the pension benefit.
