Practice question
A tribunal finally upholds dismissal after the employer genuinely complied through payroll reinstatement. A party claims that preserving the received interim salaries necessarily means the final dismissal ruling must also be reversed. Which distinction is correct?
- No-refund necessarily proves illegal dismissal forever
- Interim reinstatement salaries and the final merits result can have different legal consequences
- Every final dismissal ruling cancels the interim rule
- Payroll salaries decide all factual issues conclusively
- Interim compliance eliminates the reviewing court’s jurisdiction
