The Supreme Court overturned the lower court's decision regarding legal fees for a labor law dispute concerning a social fund. The lower court had applied different minimum fee rates for the appeal and cassation proceedings, which the Supreme Court found legally inconsistent. The court ruled that since no specific minimum fee exists for this type of labor law matter, the correct approach is to apply the minimum rate for the most similar type of property law case.
