Court declares collective dismissals null and void when a prior judicial order prohibits them under specific labor law provisions.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court declared the collective dismissals null and void because they were executed against a valid judicial order prohibiting such actions. The employer had obtained a ruling forbidding the dismissal under Article 17 of the relevant Decree-Law, yet proceeded with the terminations anyway. Consequently, the court ruled that the dismissals had no legal effect, upholding the prohibition established in the earlier decision.
