Supreme Court dismisses appeal; municipal audit committee lacks authority to issue work orders to public employees.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a labor court ruling that annulled a reprimand issued by a municipal audit committee. The plaintiff argued the committee's demand for information constituted an unlawful work order, while the defendant contended it was a legitimate request for data. The court held that only the direct employer has the authority to issue work orders, and the audit committee's request, lacking specific legal basis for such orders, was merely an inquiry rather than a directive.
