DCC 46/2010/1

This case initially involved a claim that an employee had damaged their employers by working with a competitor. It was then stated by the employee that they were not an employee but had a fake employment contract as a means of owning shares in a company since they were not a national. If share capital, even as little as 1% was unpaid the company is null and void and should be liquidated. The fact the employment contract was fake did not mean it should be rendered null and void.

Background
