Situs of Benefit Plan's Signing May Be Key in Determining Class Action Forum
Hall Benefits Law 
Sept. 19, 2019 "The Northern District of Washington ... ruled that the plaintiff's choice was less important because the case was a putative class action, meaning that it has not yet been certified by the court as a class. [The court gave] a fair amount of weight to the fact that the plan was negotiated and executed in Georgia, claiming these actions made for a 'considerable technical connection' to making the forum for the lawsuit Georgia. Further, choosing Georgia reduced litigation and travel costs on both sides." [Mayfield v. ACE American Ins. Co., No. 18-1695 (W.D. Wash. May 13, 2019)] MORE >> |
