Ada Dolph Discusses Pension Annuity Decisions in Both Bloomberg Law and Law360

Ada Dolph was quoted on recent pension annuity rulings causing confusion for attorneys in both Bloomberg Law and Law360. Dolph discussed recent divergent decisions in cases accusing defense and aerospace manufacturer Lockheed Martin and aluminum giant Alcoa of violating federal benefits law by converting pension benefits into annuity insurance contracts.

Dolph told Bloomberg Law:

“How the retirees' alleged injuries stack up against the injuries asserted in Thole will be a key question driving these pension risk transfer lawsuits.”

Dolph informed Law360:

“Attorneys will see a ripple effect on district-level decisions from the two judges' opinions, with districts continuing to split on standing and whether these suits state a claim.”
