Ninth Circuit Rules Plan Participants Have No Standing to Challenge Alleged Misconduct of Multi-Employer Benefit Manager
Kantor & Kantor Link to more items from this source
Mar. 15, 2023

"The court noted that RingCentral made all decisions regarding which benefits would be offered to employees, and what contributions would be required for those benefits. Plaintiffs were required to establish a connection between Sequoia's actions and their contributions, but RingCentral's intermediary actions broke that connection ... The Ninth Circuit then turned to plaintiffs' second standing theory, which was that they retained an equitable ownership interest in the Tech Benefits Program's trust fund ... The court held that this argument ran afoul of the Supreme Court's decision in Thole." [Winsor v. Sequoia Benefits & Ins. Servs., LLC, No. 21-16992 (9th Cir. Mar. 8, 2023)]
