SummaryUnofficial

Cabinda Gulf Oil Company lodged an extraordinary appeal on grounds of unconstitutionality against the judgment of the Supreme Court Labour Chamber which, in disciplinary proceedings where a worker's dismissal had been annulled, declined to hear its appeal because its conclusions lacked a discernible object. It invoked effective judicial protection, a fair trial and full defence. The Court found no breach, as the appellant had equal opportunities to defend itself.
