The court dismissed the employer's objection regarding the statute of limitations on pension severance pay. The employee had previously lost the right to severance due to the expiration of the limitation period, but the right was re-established when a new employment contract was terminated. The court ruled that the interruption of the limitation period occurred upon the new termination, allowing the employee to claim the previously lapsed severance.
