Supreme Court allows employee interest claim against employer in bankruptcy under specific priority rules.

The Supreme Court of Finland allowed the employee's claim for interest on unpaid wages in the employer's bankruptcy proceedings. The employee argued that interest should be paid as a priority claim, while the administrator contested this based on the general order of bankruptcy distribution. The court ruled that under the relevant bankruptcy law, interest on wage claims qualifies for priority treatment, thereby permitting the claim to be satisfied ahead of other unsecured creditors.
