Some things are just evergreen when it comes to ERISA, a point that is driven home whenever, as now, I publish my top ten most read blog posts of the prior year. The Supreme Court just returned, for about the umpteenth time, to the subject of excessive fee class action litigation and the question of how to balance the value of such cases to participants against the costs to plan sponsors. Coincidentally, the fourth most popular post in 2024 on this blog was about the exact same issue, which I wrote about in the post “An Easy Read on the Past and Future of 401(k) Plan Litigation.” The more things change, I guess . . .
