Pluto. It is now considered a dwarf planet.
No. Pluto is still perfectly intact. It was, however, demoted as it does not meet the new definition of a planet.
In 2006, Pluto was reclassified from a planet to a dwarf planet by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). This decision was made because Pluto did not meet all three criteria set by the IAU for a celestial body to be considered a planet.
Pluto was demoted from being a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union. This decision was made after the definition of a planet was revised, and Pluto no longer met the criteria.
In 1853 Vesta, Juno, Ceres and Pallas were demoted from planets to minor planets, and in 2006 Pluto was demoted from planet to dwarf planet.
Pluto is still there. The only thing that happened is that in 2006 a definition for what qualified as a planet was created and Pluto did not qualify, so it was demoted. It is now classified as a dwarf planet.

On August 24, 2006, the International Astronomical Union redefined the word "planet" and added the category "dwarf planet". End result: Pluto was "demoted" to the status of dwarf planet.
In 1853 Vesta, Juno, Ceres and Pallas were demoted from planets to minor planets, and in 2006 Pluto was demoted from planet to dwarf planet.
The International Astronomical Union "demoted" Pluto from true planet to dwarf or minor planet status in 2006; it is highly unlikely to reverse that decision and change the definition back to include Pluto as a planet in 2015.

That would depend on why you were demoted. If it was due to the workers comp alone it would be illegal, if it was for any other reason it would be normal business.
