Civil court decision not bound by administrative occupational disease determination regarding employer liability.

The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that rejected his claim for damages from his employer. The plaintiff argued that a later administrative decision confirming his occupational hearing loss should bind the civil court, but the court held that such administrative determinations are merely evidence subject to judicial evaluation. Consequently, the court found no causal link between the plaintiff's employment conditions and his hearing loss, leading to the dismissal of the claim.
