The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee seeking reinstatement after his employment contract was declared expired. The lower court found that while the employee held a union leadership position, he did not utilize the specific unpaid leave provision required to maintain his employment status during that period. Consequently, the court ruled that the employer's termination was legally valid and the appeal lacked merit.
