Default Stuck Clutch Plate

Gents, I friend has a stuck clutch plate that for no apparent reason became stuck while driving !!! He tried to depress the clutch while slowing down at an intersection and no go; the clutch is not releasing the clutch plate from the flywheel. We can see the pressure plate (V8 clutch) fingers moving and observed the pressure plate function as it should however the clutch plate is stuck to the flywheel. Anyone ever experience this? The springs on the clutch plate are all in place, the throw out bearing is moving forward as it should with an inch of freeplay as required. No work has been done on the assembly in years and this is a daily driver.
