Supreme Court allows hidden civil contract for director's management duties despite apparent employment agreement.

The Supreme Court quashed lower court rulings that declared an employment contract void because the sole shareholder acted as both employer and employee. The court found that while the formal contract was flawed, the shareholder performed distinct commercial tasks like marketing and inventory management that exceeded typical board duties. Consequently, the court ruled that the relationship could be characterized as a valid hidden civil law contract rather than a void employment relationship.
