Teacher's employment terminates by operation of law upon final conviction for intentional crime, regardless of delayed administrative notification.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the teacher's cassation appeal seeking reinstatement after a final criminal conviction for intentional misconduct. The lower courts had found the teacher guilty of refusing to rehire a colleague and imposed a fine, which triggered the automatic termination of her employment contract under the Teachers' Charter. The Court ruled that the employer's delayed declaration of termination does not alter the fact that the employment relationship ended by operation of law upon the conviction's finality.
