September 8, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 203 OPINION AND ORDER: re: 151 FOURTH MOTION to Amend/Correct Complaint filed by Marya J. Leber. For the foregoing reasons, plaintiffs' motion for leave to file a fourth amended complaint (Dkt. No. 151) is granted in part and denied i n part. Plaintiffs' motion is granted to the extent that plaintiffs may add the following in their fourth amended complaint: (1) new defendants Walter and Zimmerman; (2) new plaintiffs Highsmith and Harris; and (3) breach of the duty of loyalty allegations in Counts One through Three. Plaintiffs' motion is denied to the extent that they seek to add (1) under performance allegations to Counts One through Three; (2) a separate failure to monitor claim (Count Four) (although plaintiffs ma y add FAC paragraph 108 to Count One); (3) a claim based on the SVF (Count Five); and (4) a prohibited transactions claim (Count Six). Plaintiffs are directed to file a revised fourth amended complaint as set forth in this Opinion and Order on or before September 18, 2015.

September 30, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 133 OPINION & ORDER re: 93 MOTION for Summary Judgment. filed by Glenn Regan, James Costabile, The Citigroup 401(k) Plan Investment Committee, Donald Young, Marcia Young, Leo Viola, Christine Simpson, Robert Grogan, Robin Leopold, Timothy Tucker, Richard Tazik. Because defendants have failed to demonstrate pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1113 that plaintiffs had "actual knowledge" of the alleged breaches three years before commencing the action, defendants' motion for s ummary judgment on the issue of timeliness (Dkt. No. 93) is denied. The parties shall submit an agreed upon schedule for the remaining discovery in this action on or before October 17, 2014. SO ORDERED. ( Discovery due by 10/17/2014.) (Signed by Judge Sidney H. Stein on 9/30/2014) (ama)
November 8, 2011 Opinion or Order Filing 86 OPINION AND ORDER: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file a second amended complaint (Dkt. No. 67) is granted in part and denied in part. Plaintiffs second amended complaint may include proposed Counts Two, Four, and Five, which are not futile ins ofar as they allege breaches of the duty of prudence through the selection or retention of Affiliated Funds with high fees, but may not include Count Six. Plaintiffs are directed to Motions terminated: 67 MOTION for Leave to File Amended Complaint filed by Sara L Kennedy, Marya J. Leber. (Signed by Judge Sidney H. Stein on 11/8/2011) (ft)
March 16, 2010 Opinion or Order Filing 62 OPINION AND ORDER: #98676 Because the Court finds that plaintiffs validly state a plausible claim to relief pursuant to section 404 insofar as they allege that the committee defendants acted imprudently by steering Plan assets to affiliated mutual fu nds with higher investment advisory fees than those of competing funds, the motion to dismiss the complaint is denied with regard to those claims. As noted, however, survival of those claims will turn on resolution of the timeliness of the action, an issue that cannot be resolved on this Rule 12(b)(6) motion. None of plaintiffs' other allegations-including plaintiffs' remaining section 404 claims, all of plaintiffs, section 406 claims, and plaintiffs' claims against non-fiduciary Citigroup--states a plausible claim to relief under any section of ERISA, and accordingly, defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint in those respects is granted. (Signed by Judge Sidney H. Stein on 3/16/2010) (jpo) Modified on 3/18/2010 (ajc).
