The Supremo Tribunal Administrativo rejected the administrative appeal filed by Alice Ladeiro against the Ministry of Health. The court ruled that the medical board convened to assess the justification for sick leave also possesses the competence to determine if the same medical condition justifies the absence in question. Consequently, the court decided that the medical board's assessment covers both the grant of leave and the validation of the absence period.
