Total employee inactivity in exercising privatization rights due to personal fault bars compensation claims against the state or employer.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Waldemar P. against a lower court ruling that rejected his claim for damages. The plaintiff, a former insurance agent, failed to timely purchase privatization shares despite being on the official list and receiving verbal notice, resulting in the expiration of his right. The court held that the total inactivity was solely due to the plaintiff's own negligence, creating no causal link between the defendants' actions and the loss of value.
