The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by two teachers against a school's refusal to pay severance pay. The teachers argued that the termination of their employment contracts constituted a mutual agreement under the Teacher's Charter, which would have entitled them to severance. The court found that the teachers' unilateral resignation notices, submitted months prior to the termination date, legally dissolved the employment relationships without the need for a subsequent mutual agreement. Consequently, the statutory conditions for granting severance pay were not met, and the lower court's decision to award compensation instead was upheld.
