The Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review filed by the Solidarity Union against a labor dispute regarding compensation during a work stoppage. The plaintiff, a union leader, argued for full salary including bonuses while refusing work due to internal conflicts, but the lower courts correctly applied Article 81 of the Labor Code. The court held that workers are entitled only to the statutory rate for personal classification when work is unavailable through no fault of their own.
