The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling awarding damages for lost pre-retirement benefits. The plaintiff argued the employer failed to issue a certificate proving work in special conditions, which legally prevented her from receiving the benefit. The court held that the loss was a normal consequence of the employer's omission and that the lower court correctly applied the law regarding normal causation.
