Retiree Medical Litigation's Dirty Little Secret: 'Location, Location, Location!' (PDF)
Aspen Publishers via Jones Day Apr. 24, 2009
24 pages. Excerpt: As we will show ..., the outcome of a retiree medical lawsuit depends on the approach the court takes. The favorite venue for retired union members is the Sixth Circuit, where they are batting 1,000 in retiree medical disputes. Of the 12 published retiree medical cases arising under the Labor Management Relations Act (LMRA) in the Sixth Circuit, all 12 resulted in a finding that retiree medical benefits were vested. Next door, employers crowd the docket because the Seventh Circuit has ruled that retiree medical benefits are not vested in eight out of ten published LMRA cases.
