Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the defendant breached his loyalty duty and is liable for the company's loss caused by the credit note.
Decisione estratta
The defendant remained liable as a corporate organ under Art. 717 OR and Art. 754 OR; his own and group interests could not override the company's interests.
Motivazione estratta
For an employee who is also a company organ, contractual and corporate duties must be assessed separately. Even if the employment loyalty duty within a group were construed narrowly, the organ duty requires exclusive regard for the company. The credit note was made in favor of a sister company and harmed the plaintiff, so the organ loyalty duty was culpably breached.
