Supreme Court dismissed appeal, ruling dismissal of a named municipal employee must consider pre-retirement protection under Labor Code.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by the defendant against a labor court order reinstating a named municipal employee. The lower court held that the dismissal violated the Labor Code's protection for employees nearing retirement age, while the defendant argued the specific statute on municipal workers superseded general labor protections. The court ruled that the special statute does not exclude the application of general labor code protections regarding pre-retirement dismissal bans.
