background
Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant sought quantification of damages after an earlier judgment ordered his reinstatement or payment of damages in lieu. The respondent opted to pay damages instead of reinstatement and had already paid arrear salaries and benefits from dismissal date to reinstatement date, which the court found was incorrect interpretation of its order.
