Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal seeking reinstatement to her previous department. The court found that the plaintiff's appointment as an adjunct established a labor relationship directly with the university, not with specific organizational units. Consequently, organizational restructuring that did not significantly worsen working conditions or alter job duties did not require a change notice or reinstatement.
