The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by three miners against a coal company regarding wage equalization. The plaintiffs argued that the regional labor court should have adjusted wages based on the superior collective agreement, but the lower court correctly identified that labor courts lack authority to modify collective agreements. The court ruled that since the collective agreement did not mandate automatic wage increases, the labor court could not create individual claims based on the agreement's terms.
