Dismissal of appeal: employer's intent to terminate a named employee prevails even if they mistakenly believe the relationship is contractual.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal regarding her termination from a municipal office. The facts show the plaintiff was appointed to a position but later terminated due to organizational restructuring that reduced staff, an action justified by law for appointed employees. The court ruled that the employer's mistaken belief that the relationship was contractual did not negate their clear intent to terminate based on statutory grounds for ending an appointment-based contract.
