Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a mayor against a town council's unilateral reduction of his salary. The lower court ruled that the Labor Code does not apply to elected officials, leaving the matter solely to the Local Self-Government Law. The court affirmed that the council's decision was valid as it complied with statutory powers and lacked supervisory objections, establishing that consent is not required for such reductions.
