AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal regarding a claim for reinstatement after his contract was terminated without notice due to prolonged illness. The lower courts found that the employer correctly applied the law because the employee failed to regain work capacity within the six-month statutory period required for reinstatement. Consequently, the court held that the right to reinstatement expired before the employee could demonstrate recovery, rendering the claim inadmissible.
