The Supreme Court quashed lower court rulings and remanded the case for reconsideration. The plaintiff initially sued for payment based on an employment contract but later argued it was a service contract after objections were filed. The court held that reclassifying the legal nature of the contract is permissible as long as the underlying factual basis remains unchanged.
