Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employer against a lower court ruling that invalidated a termination of employment. The employee argued that the employer failed to comply with special protection rules, while the employer claimed the lack of union objection under Art. 10(3) of the Special Termination Act allowed the dismissal. The court held that Art. 5(3) applies to individual dismissals under Art. 41 KP because the protection is self-contained and not overridden by the union objection clause.
