[[Termination of Employment Convention, 1982|Convention no. 158]] of the [[International Labour Organization]] states that an employee "can't be fired without any legitimate motive" and "before offering him the possibility to defend himself". Thus, on April 28, 2006, after the unofficial repeal of the French [[First Employment Contract]], the [[Longjumeau]] ([[Essonne]]) ''conseil des prud'hommes'' (labour law court) judged the [[New Employment Contract]] contrary to [[international law]] and therefore "illegitimate" and "without any juridical value". The court considered that the two-years period of "fire at will" (without any legal motive) was "unreasonable", and contrary to convention.<ref name="Reuters">{{Cite news|title=Un contrat en CNE jugé contraire au droit international |date=April 28, 2006 |access-date=2006-05-05 |publisher=Reuters |url=http://today.reuters.fr/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-04-28T165412Z_01_TOU860781_RTRIDST_0_OFRTP-FRANCE-EMPLOI-CNE-TRIBUNAL-20060428.XML |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060524110508/http://today.reuters.fr/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-04-28T165412Z_01_TOU860781_RTRIDST_0_OFRTP-FRANCE-EMPLOI-CNE-TRIBUNAL-20060428.XML |url-status=dead |archive-date=May 24, 2006 |language=fr }}</ref><ref>{{Cite news | title=Bernard Thibault au plus haut |date=April 28, 2006 | access-date=2006-05-05 | work=[[L'Express (France)|L'Express]] | url=http://www.lexpress.fr/info/quotidien/actu.asp?id=3591 | archive-url=http://arquivo.pt/wayback/20091001054905/http://www.lexpress.fr/info/quotidien/actu.asp?id=3591 | archive-date=2009-10-01 |language=fr}}</ref>
