The Supreme Administrative Court admitted the preliminary review to examine whether the termination of a fixed-term employment contract entitles the employee to a fifth automatic renewal. The applicant argued that the termination act violated statutory renewal rights, while the respondent contended the contract ended lawfully. The court decided to proceed with the review because the legal question regarding the scope of automatic renewal rights requires substantive analysis before a final ruling.
