This case involved a claim for compensation for dismissal. The case covered the conditions for dismissal due to absence. The court had a right to decide if compensation was due and the employee had failed to meet their contractual obligations.
Background
The claimants filed a case against the defendants before the court of urgent affairs requesting the appointment of an expert to inspect the work of the company (first defendant) and to prove its violations and determine its assets. The claimants said that the first defendant had violated the company contract and the relevant laws and failed to provide them with information about the company's losses and profits.
The court ruled that an expert should be appointed.
The defendants appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court dismissed the appealed ruling regarding the second defendant.
