The Notice of Expelling was Overruled, Protecting the Right of Reputation for the Employee

因上海某公司经营不善，白领M女士与其任职的上海某公司签署了《离职协议书》，但随后该公司却拒绝支付补偿金与工资，并捏造违纪事实向M女士开具《违纪开除通知书》。该《违纪开除通知书》将对M女士未来的入职带来负面影响。金英律师事务所承办律师代理M女士向法院提起诉讼，要求认定该份《违纪开除通知书》无效。该案日前一审审结，法院判定《违纪开除通知书》无效，M女士的其它补偿请求亦获得法院的全部支持。

Ms. M had signed Employment Termination Agreement (the ETA) with her employer Shanghai OT Co. (the “Company”). However, the company refused to perform the ETA to compensate Ms. M. Moreover, the Company issued Ms. M a Notice of Expelling (the “Notice”) based on fabricated facts. Considering that the Notice may have an incredible negative impact to Ms. M’s career in the future, SUMMIT filed a complaint requesting to revoke the Notice on behave of Ms. M. The judgment was received recently, revoking the Notice and rewarding Ms. M the full damages requested.

受审法院起初与劳动仲裁委的观点一致，认为在《离职协议书》有效的情况下，《违纪开除通知书》已无事实基础，无需进行效力确认。承办律师从诉请的法律依据、案例检索到事实情理等多个角度向审理法官展开论述，最终获得了法官的认可。法院支持M女士的诉请，确认《违纪开除通知书》无效。

The judge ruling on this case initially had considered that the Notice would have no ground if the ETA was in force. Our attorneys demonstrated respects of the legal basis of the claim and precedents, and analyzed the concerns and facts of moral impact on Ms. M’s personal characters etc. The judge was finally persuaded by our attorneys and ruled in favor of Ms. M.  

M女士作为劳动者的名誉权通过本案得到了切实的保护。金英的诉讼律师致力于全方面维护被代理人的权益，在代理案件时不仅关注被代理人的财产权利，对于被代理人的名誉等人身权利同样关注。

Ms. M’s reputation was equally protected in this case. The litigators of SUMMIT devoted themselves to safeguard the rights, not only the property rights, but also the personal rights, of the clients thoroughly.
