The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a part-time art teacher seeking reinstatement. The lower court found that the employer's reduction of working hours was governed by Article 42 of the Labor Code, not Article 20 of the Teacher's Charter, which applies only to full-time staff. The court ruled that the employer's legal basis for the dismissal was irrelevant and that the school's restructuring to hire a specialist in plastic art justified the change.
