The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's judgment dismissing the plaintiff's claim for a severance payment based on a restructuring plan. The defendant argued the plan was merely an internal agreement regarding job changes rather than a source of labor law. The court ruled that the lower court failed to determine whether the plan met the criteria of Article 9 of the Labor Code to be considered binding labor law, a prerequisite for any substantive review.
