Employee's declaration to buy shares accepted; company liable for damages due to lack of care.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a joint-stock company against a lower court's award of damages to an employee. The employee had declared his intent to purchase shares before the privatization law took effect, but the company failed to accept this declaration within the statutory period. The court held that the company was liable for damages due to its lack of due care, even though the declaration was technically premature, and that the lower court's reasoning was legally correct despite minor errors in its justification.
