Mistaken termination, no wrongful dismissal
Ten months after Imelda Roche went on medical leave, her employer sent her a termination letter, believing that she was better but choosing not to return to work. But when the employer found out Roche was still not well, it rescinded the termination and restored her benefits. Roche wasn't impressed and sued for wrongful dismissal at the Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador.
