Supreme Court dismissed claim for damages regarding loss of free share acquisition right due to employee negligence.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that denied her claim for damages. The court found that the plaintiff, a long-term employee, failed to submit a timely declaration to acquire shares due to her own negligence in checking internal records. Consequently, the court held that no causal link existed between the bank's actions and the loss of the right, as the plaintiff's inaction extinguished the entitlement.
