Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the teacher's cassation appeal regarding her termination from her teaching position. The lower courts had ruled that the termination was lawful under the pre-1996 version of the Teachers' Charter, noting the dismissal occurred before the new law's effective date. The Supreme Court affirmed this by establishing that the legality of the termination must be assessed based on the law in force at the moment the termination letter was delivered to the teacher.
