The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal regarding her termination for breach of duty. The lower court found that the employee's errors in accounting and refusal to cooperate with inspections constituted a violation of her obligations, which the employer cited as grounds for dismissal. The Supreme Court ruled that the employee's role in exposing management's potential misconduct did not negate her own failures or justify leniency in her case.
