The Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding the standing of an insolvent employer to sue the Guaranteed Benefits Fund. The employer argued that the Fund's refusal to transfer funds for unpaid debts constituted a 'refusal to pay' under the relevant Act, granting the employer active standing. The court agreed, noting that while the Fund has legal personality, the employer has a direct interest in receiving funds to discharge its debt to employees, making the employer the proper plaintiff.
