The Supreme Court dismissed the firefighter's cassation appeal regarding financial compensation for unused vacation time. The plaintiff argued for monetary compensation for over 1000 hours of overtime work not converted to leave before retirement, citing general labor regulations. The court ruled that the Fire Service Act provides specific, non-transferable rules for leave conversion that exclude automatic financial compensation for unused time.
