Submitting a new claim could also raise the possibility of the res judicata principle applying, so that if your client was turned down for any reason on the subsequent new claim, the tribunal's decision would only be effective up to the date of this new decision, thus invalidating the tribunal decision to all useful intents and purposes.
Sounds barmy to me, tbh. It is the JSA claim that would lapse automatically when the pre-existing IB/IS claim is found by the tribunal to, effectively, still maintain under regulations.
