What happened
A proposed class action against Bayada Home Health Care, Inc. and the administrative committee of its 401(k) plan, apparently alleging ERISA violations related to the plan's investment selection and monitoring. The plaintiffs appear to be plan participants seeking relief on behalf of the plan and a class of participants. These are allegations in a lawsuit and have not been proven.
