Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal against his dismissal from a municipal office. The court held that an employer has a legitimate interest in terminating a contract with a pensioner earning a steady income to hire an unemployed resident. Consequently, the employee's high qualifications and good performance did not automatically render the dismissal invalid.
