The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, sending the case back to the regional court for a new ruling on costs. The plaintiff sought damages from the city mayor and municipal office for his dismissal as a school principal, arguing the mayor was the employer. The court clarified that while the mayor is the superior officer, the school itself is the legal employer, making the city and mayor improper defendants in a labor dispute.
