The labor court dismissed the plaintiff's claim to establish an employment relationship based on a civil service contract. The plaintiff argued that the work conditions, such as fixed hours and employer control, indicated an employment relationship despite the contract's name. The court rejected this, finding the plaintiff's testimony unreliable and noting the defendant's right to choose working conditions without coercion. Consequently, the court ruled that no employment relationship existed and decided not to charge the plaintiff with legal costs due to their severe financial hardship.
