Benefits Groups Plead to Keep ERISA Discretionary Authority to Interpret Ambiguous Plan Provisions
HR Daily Advisor Link to more items from this source
Aug. 5, 2012

"Four groups -- the ERISA Industry Committee, the American Benefits Council, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable -- filed an amicus brief July 26 to urge 2nd Circuit judges to support the principle of deference to plan administrators' decisions over benefit plans.... The plaintiffs (joined by the U.S. Department of Labor) argued that the plan's discretion can be overturned when it ignores participants' reasonable reading of ambiguous plan provisions." [Conkright v. Frommmert, 2nd Cir. 12-0067-CV]
