Supreme Court quashes labor contract termination ruling for failure to interpret employer's will correctly under Civil Code.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the employee's claim to reinstate him after termination. The employee argued the employer's letter was invalid because it cited the wrong employment contract date, while the employer contended the letter clearly terminated the current agreement. The court ruled that the lower court erred by focusing on the erroneous date citation rather than the actual intent to terminate the active contract, violating statutory interpretation rules.
