The Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether a teacher's employment contract terminates upon a criminal conviction for intentional crimes. The Court determined that a judgment of guilt with a fine, but without a prison sentence, does not constitute a 'final conviction' under the Teacher's Card. Consequently, the employer's unilateral termination of the contract based on this judgment was deemed invalid.
