Violation of employment duties negates severance pay regardless of termination reason under Art. 12 of the Management Remuneration Act.

The Supreme Court partially overturned the lower court's decision, ordering the employer to pay severance to a council member whose employment was terminated without county council approval. The plaintiff argued the termination was unlawful due to the missing administrative consent, while the defendant contended the county council had discretion to approve or reject such terminations. The court ruled that while the county council's stance depends on the cause, it must refuse consent if the termination stems from the council member's mandate performance, thereby establishing a violation of employment duties that bars severance payment.
