"In particular, this interlocutory appeal requires us to determine whether a defendant is capable of expressly waiving the six-year statute of repose contained in ERISA Section 413(1) -- or whether instead, the protection provided by [that section] is so essential, so fundamental, that it (seemingly almost alone among personal rights) is inherently indefeasible and unwaivable. We won't bury the lede. In response to the district court's certified question, we answer yes -- [that section's] statute of repose is subject to express waiver." [Sec'y, U.S. Dept of Labor v. Preston, No. 17-10833 (11th Cir. Oct. 12, 2017)]  MORE >>
