1. The plaintiff, who retired from the defendant company ("Miramar") in 1996, is seeking a payment of $3,582,250 being his entitlement to a lump sum pension under Miramar's retirement fund scheme. The plaintiff joined Miramar in June 1968. The primary issue in this case is whether his service has been continuous for the purpose of his entitlement under the scheme. Miramar contends there was a break from 1978 to 1985 which, if correct, disentitles him to any such payment.
