Expanding Equitable Remedies in ERISA Cases

The January 8, 2015 edition of the Los Angeles Daily Journal featured Robert McKennon and Scott Calvert’s article entitled:  “Expanding Equitable Remedies in ERISA Cases.”   In it, Mr. McKennon and Mr. Calvert discuss a new case, Gabriel v. Alaska Electrical Pension Fund, 2014 DJDAR 16590 (9th Cir. 2014), which discusses equitable remedies in ERISA cases and in particular how the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has joined other circuits in allowing various equitable remedies, most especially the surcharge remedy which may allow ERISA claimants to obtain monetary relief.
