Supreme Court dismisses appeal; employer cannot define 'other valid reasons' in university statutes for dismissal.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a university regarding the dismissal of a tenured academic. The court held that the employer lacks the authority to specify 'other valid reasons' for dismissal within the university's statutes, as the law requires such reasons to be determined case-by-case based on specific circumstances. This interpretation preserves the closed list of dismissal grounds and prevents the erosion of tenure protections through administrative generalization.
