The Supreme Court quashed the Regional Court's judgment dismissing the employee's claim for damages due to illegal termination without notice. Although the lower court ruled the employer's claim for damages inadmissible, it failed to address the employer's argument that proving the employee's fault in the termination was legally relevant. The court held that the employer possesses a legitimate legal interest in contesting such a verdict because the cause and manner of termination significantly impact the employee's entitlement to severance pay and other benefits.
