An employee of the Paris town hall had sued the city before the administrative court. She wanted to have her employer fully cover her work stoppage, but the courts ruled against her.

For justice, the accident is not “related to the duties’ of the employee. It was held that the accident was in the nature of an “event detachable from the service”. The woman had asked the courts to decide after breaking several toes on March 22, 2021. She was at home, where she was undergoing training in teleworking.
