Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee seeking reinstatement to his former position. The court found that the employee's consent to be appointed to a new role at a different employer constituted an implied agreement to terminate his previous employment contract. Consequently, the lower court correctly ruled that the prior employment relationship had ended upon the new appointment, making claims based on a wrongful termination of that specific contract inadmissible.
