What happened

A proposed class action against Swiss Re American Holding Corporation and its employee pension plan fiduciaries, apparently concerning alleged violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) in connection with the company's employee pension plan. The case was filed by a plan participant, Rudasill, and names the corporation, its board of directors, and the employee pension plan committee as defendants. The available docket text does not detail the specific alleged misconduct, but the nature of suit is ERISA.
