The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by employees against a regional court judgment awarding severance pay. The plaintiffs incorrectly declared the appeal value in their cassation petition, which the Supreme Court noted was not binding for admissibility purposes. The court ruled that the second-instance court was obligated to verify the appeal value against the original claim amount and reject the appeal if it exceeded statutory limits, a duty the second-instance court failed to perform.
