The Constitutional Court ruled to dismiss the challenge to the unconstitutionality of paragraph "c" of Article 137 of the Labor Law.
The court held its session on 17/8/2021 under the chairmanship of its president, Judge Hisham Al-Tal, and the membership of judges Muhammad Al-Dhuib, Muhammad Al-Alawneh, Muhammad Al- Mubaideen,
Qassem Al-Momani, Fayez Hamarneh, Dr. Akram Massadeh, Muhammad Al-Mahadin and Taghreed Hekmat.
The court found that the reasons given by the appellant for the unconstitutionality of the challenged article had no legal basis and required a response.
Based on the decision, a person filed a challenge to the unconstitutionality of paragraph C of Article 137 of the Labor Law in force against three defendants and demanded a sum of money of 46 thousand and
901 dinars, and the competent court sentenced him to the amount of two thousand and 527 dinars, and dismissed the claim for the remaining amount, and the appellant was not satisfied with the amount
awarded to him, and asked for cassation and asked to defend the unconstitutionality of the said article.
Paragraph C of Article 137 of the Labor Law amended by Law No. 14 of 2019 states the following: "The court's decision issued under the provisions of paragraph A of this article shall be appealed within days
from the date of its understanding if it is face-to-face and from the date of its notification if it serves as face-to-face, and the court shall decide on the appeal within 10 days from the date of its receipt to its office.
