Significant delay in appeal filing against employment termination excuses only special circumstances lasting the entire delay period.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a labor court judgment rejecting his claim for reinstatement and severance pay. The employee had filed his appeal over a month after the seven-day statutory deadline, arguing special circumstances justified the delay. The court held that such significant delays require special circumstances persisting throughout the entire period, which the employee failed to prove.
