Spanish judicial rulings on social security benefits

Overview

Spanish high courts have issued rulings regarding the denial and withdrawal of social security benefits based on medical status and residency requirements.

The High Court of Justice of Andalusia upheld the denial of permanent disability benefits for an agricultural worker, ruling that the potential for functional recovery meant the conditions did not meet the threshold for permanent incapacity.

In a separate matter, the High Court of Justice of Catalonia confirmed the termination of a non-contributory disability pension for a woman who violated residency requirements by spending 680 days in Morocco. The court also noted that her household income exceeded the legal limits permitted to maintain the benefit.
