Sixth Circuit: Employee's Widow Can Bring Life Insurance Claim Against Walmart as Fiduciary
Reuters; free registration may be required Apr. 13, 2022 "The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said a lower court erred in dismissing Ruth Mae Chelf's claims for breach of fiduciary duty based on the 'ministerial function' exception to ERISA ... That defense was unavailable to Walmart because ... '[Walmart] was a fiduciary as it indisputably exercised control over the Plan's assets when it handled Mr. Chelf's premiums, exercised control over the disposition of the Plan's assets, and had discretionary authority over the administration of the Plan,' [judge Jane B. Stranch] wrote[.]" [Chelf v. Prudential Ins. Co., No. 20-6097 (6th Cir. Apr. 12, 2022)] |
