LaRue v. DeWolff, Boberg & Associates, Inc. (motion denied 09/25/2007)

This case raises the issue of whether ERISA permit a participant to bring an action to recover losses attributable to his account in a “defined contribution plan” that were caused by fiduciary breach.
The respondent filed a motion to dismiss on the ground of mootness because the plan participant has withdrawn all his funds from the account.
The US Supreme Court denied the motion.
