Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether multiple claims of the same type can be pursued in a single lawsuit under simplified labor procedure. The plaintiff sought various monthly bonuses for different years, which the lower court combined into one case despite different due dates. The court ruled that such combination is permissible and that joining separate cases under general procedure rules effectively abandons the simplified procedure regardless of the claim's value.
