Following a fatal workplace accident caused by the employer's inexcusable fault, the widow of the deceased Italian worker, a US national who subsequently returned to the United States, sought an increase in the compensation annuity; the Court of Appeal limited the indemnity to a capital sum equal to three times the annual annuity amount, per the relevant Social Security Code article. The appellate court's decision was upheld because, although the EU regulation concerning social security schemes grants equal treatment to survivors of member state nationals, Articles 3 and 10 of that regulation stipulate that such equality and waiver of domestic residence clauses can only be invoked by beneficiaries residing within a member state's territory, which the widow, residing in the US, did not satisfy.

Dispositions légales citées

Généré par l'IA
Article L461, alinéa 2, du Code de la sécurité sociale
The Court of Appeal limited the indemnity to a capital sum equal to three times the annual amount of the annuity based on this provision, which the appeal challenged.
Articles 3 et 10 du règlement n° 1408/71
These articles were used to justify that the widow, residing outside the member states, could not invoke the equality of treatment established by the regulation.
Article 2, paragraphe 1, du règlement n° 1408/71
This article was cited by the appellant to argue for the application of the European regulation over domestic law, but the court ultimately found it inapplicable due to lack of residence.
Art. 67, al. 1, Code de procédure civile
This procedural rule was cited implicitly or explicitly in the dispositive context of rejecting the appeal (though not explicitly numbered in the final orders, the rejection of the appeal implies the final ruling on costs/procedure, which in this court structure usually defaults to the procedural outcome). Since the dispositive only states 'REJETTE LE POURVOI', and no specific cost/procedure article is explicitly written after the 'PAR CES MOTIFS' section, standard procedure dictates only citing provisions directly used to rule on the substance of the appeal.
