Eighth Circuit Affirms Denial of Disability Pension Where Claimant Failed to Submit Social Security Disability Notice of Award with Application for Pension Benefits
Roberts Disability Law Link to more items from this source
Apr. 6, 2023

"The court explained that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying Ruessler's July 2017 application because the Board reasonably interpreted the Plan as requiring the notice of award be provided at the time the application is submitted, but no later than the 180 days that the Board has to decide the claim. The court rejected Ruessler's argument that he could cure the defect by submitting the notice of award with his appeal." [Ruessler v. Boilermaker-Blacksmith Nat'l Pension Tr. Bd. of Trustees, No. 21-3876 (8th Cir. Apr. 3, 2023)]
