The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a former officer seeking unpaid military wages. The plaintiff argued that civil courts should handle the case under labor law, but the court confirmed that the 1974 Pay Act mandates military organs to decide on compensation. The court ruled that the plaintiff's current civilian status does not alter the nature of the claim, which remains a military service dispute subject to administrative review.
