Wrongful Termination

Outcome

Sun Life did not abuse its discretion in terminating Fine's LTD benefits as of January 1, 2012, but equitable considerations prevent Sun Life from recouping most of the benefits previously paid in error. The court found Fine's Non-Executive Chairman compensation and board service earnings exceeded the 80% threshold for continued eligibility.
