Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal against her dismissal for failing to question illegal instructions from her former director. The court found that the plaintiff, aware of the budget violation and unauthorized actions, had a duty to object based on her managerial role and professional obligations. Consequently, the court upheld the lower court's decision that blindly executing unlawful orders constituted sufficient grounds for termination.
