Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by two national park employees seeking a higher rent equivalent based on their residence rather than their workplace. The court found that while the Minister exceeded statutory authority in setting the rate, the actual intent of the employers was to compensate for housing costs only at the work location. Consequently, the lower courts correctly applied the principle that the rent equivalent must correspond to the free market rate in the municipality where the duties are performed.
