GVSU illegally holding my pension after termination, Insist that I say I am voluntarily retiring

I was terminated (on 3-10-10) from Grand Valley State University in Allendale Michigan amidst a slip and fall on their premises on 2-24-10. I became eligible for my pension in April.

I applied for my pension under their Defined Benefit Plan at that time only to be refused because GVSU wanted me to say that I am voluntarily retiring not terminated as I had been.

I sent in several request over the last year and a half to no avail. GVSU keep sending me new applications everytime I request my pension. GVSU also told me that they are not set up for retroactive pay.

Because it is illegal to withhold pension benefits I endeavor to sue GVSU under ERISA for wrongfully suspending my pension pursuant to Summary Plan Agreement and I want punitive damages for Breach of Contract, Breach of Trust, Breach of Fiduciary Duty as well as retroactive pay as it is now September 13.

I should not have to continue to request my pension, fill out numerous applications and yet not receive it. This is a public university that is receiving public money. This is unethical.
