Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal regarding a work accident death claim. The lower court found that grading students was a normal duty, so the stress from poor grades did not cause the teacher's death. The court upheld this by ruling that no causal link existed between routine work tasks and the fatal event.
