Labor law: Remote past negligence does not justify dismissal if it lacks causal link to termination timing.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal in a labor dispute where an employee sought reinstatement after being fired for past negligence. The employer cited failures from 1996 and 1997 regarding pallet purchases and transformer orders, while the dismissal occurred in 1998. The court held that these remote incidents were not a justified reason for termination because they lacked a direct causal connection to the moment of dismissal and were too distant in time.
