District Court Confirms Only Named Plan Administrator May Face § 1132(c) Penalties

Nov. 25, 2025

"The court reaffirmed the Tenth Circuit's strict interpretation of Section 1132(c), holding that only the designated plan administrator -- as named in the governing plan documents -- can be subject to penalties.
