Northwestern.CIEBA felt strongly that the case, which deals with the appropriate standard for an ERISA plaintiff’s claim to survive the pleadings stage, was important enough to CIEBA Members to warrant having CIEBA weigh in directly by name. Essentially, we made the point in the Brief that there should be meaningful pleading-stage scrutiny to force plaintiffs to make sufficiently specific ERISA Fiduciary breach claims in order to minimize costly nuisance ERISA complaints. The case is set for argument for Dec. 6 with a ruling likely in early 2022. We will continue to monitor the case and will keep everyone updated. Click Here to View the Article
