The Supreme Court dismissed Halina K.'s complaint against the District Labor Court's decision regarding her termination severance pay. The District Court ruled that the employer's offer was binding but that the specific amount of the highest severance was ambiguous and required interpretation by the parties. The court held that the plaintiff failed to prove the parties agreed to a higher amount and that the lower payment was a valid interpretation of the collective agreement.
