9th Circuit Panel Refuses To Rehear Arguments In Disability Benefits Suit

SAN FRANCISCO - The Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals on July 3 denied a petition for rehearing, refusing to reconsider a June 15 remand of a disability benefits dispute to a district court to determine whether the claimant is entitled to equitable relief based on the disability plan's failure to properly offset the claimant's disability benefits (Petar Mrkonjic v. Delta Family-Care and Survivorship Plan, et al., Nos. 16-56335 and 16-56487, 9th Cir., 2018 U.S. App. LEXIS 18228).
