SummaryUnofficial

Atlético Petróleos de Luanda appealed against the judgment of the Labour Chamber of the Supreme Court which, reversing the first-instance decision, upheld the appeal in a dispute arising from the termination by the employee of a sports employment contract, alleging breaches of legality, the adversarial principle and fair trial, and lack of jurisdiction. The Court dismissed the appeal because the principles invoked had not been breached and the jurisdiction issue was a new question not considered by the court below.
