The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal regarding the establishment of an employment relationship between the deceased husband and the defendant company. The lower courts found that the work was sporadic, short-term, and lacked the necessary subordination and continuous nature required for an employment contract. Consequently, the court ruled that the burden of proof rested on the plaintiff, who failed to demonstrate the essential elements of employment law.
