The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the university's appeal against an order to pay compensation to a former lecturer. The university had appointed the employee to a temporary position after establishing a permanent role, but the new public service law made such temporary appointments unlawful. The court ruled that the university was legally obligated to compensate the employee for the period of the invalid temporary contract.

X oli ollut 1.8.1985 lähtien yliopiston määräaikaisena italian kielen lehtorina. Yliopiston humanistisen tiedekunnan dekaanin 9.12.1994 tekemällä päätöksellä X oli nimitetty edelleen italian kielen lehtorin määräaikaiseen virkasuhteeseen 1.1.1995 alkaen 31.7.1995 saakka. Yliopistoon oli yliopiston rehtorin 21.3.1995 tekemällä päätöksellä perustettu italian kielen lehtorin virka, johon X oli kelpoinen. Katsottiin, ettei yliopistolla enää valtion virkamieslain tultua 1.12.1994 voimaan ollut laillista perustetta nimittää X:ää määräaikaiseen virkasuhteeseen. X:n vaatimuksesta yliopisto määrättiin valtion virkamieslain 56 §:n nojalla maksamaan X:lle korvauksena 10 kuukauden palkkaa vastaavan määrän.
