Minnesota Federal Judge Says Claims Against LTD Insurer Are Not Duplicative

MINNEAPOLIS - A Minnesota federal judge on Aug. 29 denied a disability insurer's motion for judgment on the pleadings after determining that a breach of fiduciary claim seeking attorney fees and health care costs as remedies for the breach is not duplicative of the breach of fiduciary claim seeking benefits under a long-term disability (LTD) plan (Michael J. Christoff v. Unum Life Insurance Company of America, No. 17-3512, D. Minn., 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 147188).
