Court held that reorganizing municipal offices with staff reduction constitutes dismissal under public service law.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that rejected an employee's claim to reinstatement. The employee, a designated public servant, was dismissed due to the liquidation of his specific department during a municipal reorganization that actually increased overall staffing. The court ruled that the statutory provisions on designated employment are exhaustive regarding changes to the employment relationship, prohibiting the use of a modified notice to transfer him to a different designated position.
