Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal concerning damages for an invalid employment certificate but allowed the claim for reinstatement and severance pay. The employee was terminated after failing to return confidential documents, which the employer argued constituted a continuous breach of duty. The court held that the termination was justified because the employee's failure to return the documents persisted until the trial, preventing the one-month notice period from expiring.
