District Court Finds Plan Trustees May Be 'Surcharged' to Remedy Breach That Caused Loss of Benefits Under Unrelated Plan
Michelle L. Roberts, via LinkedIn Link to more items from this source
June 17, 2019

"The court considered and rejected the Welfare Fund's arguments that [the plaintiff] is not entitled to equitable relief. First, it found that surcharge does not require traceability. The court explained that the Welfare Fund confused restitution with surcharge which does not require unjust enrichment nor the loss of particular plan funds. Amara extended the surcharge remedy to a breach of trust committed by a fiduciary encompassing any violation of a fiduciary duty." [DeRogatis v. Bd. of Trustees of the Welfare Fund of the Int'l Union of Operating Engineers Local 15, 15A, 15C & 15D, AFL-CIO, No. 14-8863 (S.D.N.Y. June 13, 2019)]
