Improper authorization of counsel does not equate to failure to show authorization; lack of signature is not fatal. The cassation complaint was dismissed.
Legislator-Zusammenfassung
KI-generiertThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation complaint filed by the appellant against a labor court judgment awarding overtime pay and unused vacation compensation. The appellant argued that the lower court failed to properly evaluate procedural defects, specifically citing the lack of a handwritten signature on the power of attorney document. The court held that the absence of a handwritten signature, where a facsimile was used instead, does not constitute a failure to demonstrate proper authorization under the Civil Procedure Code. Consequently, the court found no grounds to overturn the lower court's decision on the merits.
