This Thursday, Bailey Glasser’s ERISA Practice Group Leader, Gregory Porter, will join the Federalist Society’s “A Seat at the Sitting” panel discussion to preview the Supreme Court of the United States’ upcoming January docket.
One case set for argument on January 22, 2025, is Cunningham v. Cornell, which focuses on a key issue in ERISA litigation: whether a plaintiff can state a claim simply by alleging that a plan fiduciary engaged in prohibited transactions with a party in interest, or whether they must plead and prove additional facts not expressly required by federal law. The outcome could significantly impact how ERISA claims are litigated, particularly those involving retirement plan fees and fiduciary duties.
Greg brings extensive trial and class action experience in complex pension, 401(k), and ESOP lawsuits, having recovered hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of employees who lost retirement savings due to fiduciary mismanagement. His insights on the potential implications of this case for retirement plans nationwide are invaluable. To learn more about Greg, visit here.
