The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a labor court decision terminating his employment. The employee argued that the lower courts failed to cite specific evidence for their factual findings regarding his substitution of a fire extinguisher. The court ruled that such a procedural omission does not automatically constitute grounds for cassation unless it could have materially influenced the case outcome. Since the factual findings were supported by consistent witness testimony and the procedural defect had no impact on the final judgment, the appeal was rejected.
