The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the employee's claims regarding wrongful termination and remanded the case for a new decision. The employee was appointed by a municipal council resolution, later elected to another council, and subsequently terminated after the original council declared the appointment invalid due to legal non-compliance. The court held that since the invalidation occurred after the employment relationship had already ended, it could not be used to challenge the legality of the termination proceedings.
