The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of a teacher's claim for additional pay for overtime hours. The teacher argued that working beyond his standard teaching load violated his personal rights and caused health damage, but the lower courts had not examined this specific claim. The Supreme Court ruled that while consent to extra hours does not automatically mean consent to a lower wage rate, the teacher failed to properly assert his personal rights claims in the first instance, making his cassation arguments inadmissible.
