Supreme Court dismisses teacher's claim for indefinite contract, ruling Article 10 of Teachers' Charter excludes Labor Code Art. 251.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's appeal and cassation against a regional court ruling that denied her request for an indefinite-term employment contract. The plaintiff argued that successive fixed-term contracts should automatically convert to an indefinite contract under Labor Code Article 251, while the defendant contended that the Teachers' Charter governs such arrangements. The court held that Article 10 of the Teachers' Charter exclusively regulates fixed-term contracts for teachers and explicitly excludes the application of Labor Code Article 251, thereby validating the lower court's decision.
