Panasonic maintained that Peckson voluntarily resigned from work, as seen in his two resignation letters, exit interview, clearance procedure, and signing of a quitclaim and release. De Jesus allegedly threatened to terminate Peckson's employment the next day. Proceedings in the LA and the NLRC LA Danna M. Castillon dismissed Peckson's complaint for lack of merit, ...
