KCC 612/2001 issued on 28/10/2002

This case involved an employee who had an allowance cancelled while on leave. A key point was whether the claim was within the statute of limitations. Evidence was required on when the employee knew about the decision to cancel the allowance.

Background

A claimant filed a case against defendants on their capacities before the court. They requested the court to order the defendants to pay them the annual allowances. They said that they worked for the first defendant and that went on leave and that the defendant dismissed their right in the mentioned allowances without justifications.

The court ruled that the defendants should pay the claimant the value of the allowances.

The defendants appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court upheld the appealed ruling.
