absurd! unacceptable ! TST has to set an example for all of Brazil!!
At least the victim's payment process against the labor court will be quick. Well, it was at the labor court office. And there shouldn't be any boss with a lawyer to deny what happened, I ask the free press to follow the case. And if the court does not pay for its bias, sue in the higher courts.
