The nullity of the decision terminating the special prison labor relation and the inmate's right for compensation of damages

Commentary on Supreme Court Ruling 566/2023, of 19 September

Abstract

The disputed object affects the extintion of the employment relationship. And, specifically, the right to compensation for damages that the prisoner-worker will have is debated when the penitentiary center terminates the existing employment relationship, but said extintion is declared null. Until the ruling under comment there was no unification of doctrine on the matter, although the Supreme Court had issued numerous rulings on issues related to the extintion of this special employment relationship.
