Summary:
The claimant, a joint shareholder, was laid off owing to a lack of work. However, he continued to go to the office for three or four hours every day to try to prevent the business from going bankrupt. It was found that the claimant had had no interruption of earnings, since there had never been any termination of employment lasting seven consecutive days. Citing the FCA decision in Reny (A-0909.96), the Umpire upheld the decision.
