The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against the appellate court's decision to reject her claim for severance pay. The plaintiff argued that the employer violated substantive law by terminating her employment contract after she resigned from her board position, citing specific clauses in the employment agreement. The court ruled that employment contracts are not substantive law and that the appeal's grounds incorrectly targeted contract terms rather than statutory rights, rendering the cassation inadmissible.
