A former Societe Generale SA banker who claims he was unfairly fired for blowing the whistle on a bribery scheme must now wait about two years for a verdict after a Paris court failed to reach a decision on his $5 million lawsuit.

A Paris employment tribunal panel of four wasn’t able to reach a verdict Friday in the case filed by Elyes Jebali, an ex-managing director.
