The court annulled the Ministry's rescission of the contract, which was originally justified by service convenience. The appellant argued that the dismissal was improper, while the respondent maintained the convenience grounds were valid. The court ruled that when facts constitute a disciplinary infraction, the convenience argument is legally invalid and the rescission must be based on the infraction.

SUMÁRIO

A conveniencia de serviço e o motivo disciplinar constituem causas diferentes de rescisão dos contratos, sendo de anular o despacho que, invocando a conveniencia de serviço, decretou a rescisão quando se prove que esta teve por fundamento factos qualificados como infracção disciplinar.
