The Supreme Court partially quashed the lower court's decision regarding the invalidity of an employment contract. The facts showed a pregnant employee was hired for a month with an inflated salary to secure maternity benefits, while the employer faced financial losses. The court held that while the entire contract could not be voided, the specific salary agreement was invalid due to violating good morals and social insurance principles.
