Notice of termination given by email: what message does a court judgment delivered in 2025 send to practice?
Digitalisation is raising an increasing number of practical questions in the field of employment law as well, particularly as regards the method and timing of communicating legal declarations. The judgment of the Székesfehérvár Regional Court, case no. M.70042/2024/46, which was upheld on appeal by the Győr Regional Court of Appeal in decision no. Mf.30024/2025/5., examined one such typical yet particularly important issue: when does an employee’s notice of termination sent by email become effective, especially where there is no actual “awareness” on the employer’s part?
