The original dispute involved a salary claim by an employee who had worked for a company, left and re-joined it against her employers. The dispute was originally heard by a Grievance Committee and one of the issues was which court had jurisdiction to hear the appeal. In question was whether the appeal court had taken into account appropriate evidence in coming to its decision. The case should not have been brought before the Court of Cassation as the lower court had the authority to understand the case and assess the material evidence.
