The Supreme Court partially overturned the appellate court's decision in a labor dispute between a company and its former president. The lower courts failed to properly establish facts regarding unpaid advances and incorrectly dismissed a set-off defense without concrete verification. The court ruled that the company was validly represented in labor matters and that the set-off claim must be reconsidered with all mutual debts accounted for.
