The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of Dariusz K.'s claim against his employer for wrongful termination. The court found that the employer incorrectly declared the employment relationship ended, thereby refusing further employment. Consequently, the 14-day deadline for filing a reinstatement claim began on the day of this wrongful refusal rather than the date of the initial termination notice. The court ruled that the lower court erred in applying the statute of limitations by failing to account for the employer's procedural violation.
