(United States Fourth Circuit) - Affirming the summary judgment to an insurer that paid only half of a life insurance policy following the policy holder's death because the reduced coverage was the result of mistakes made by the employer, not the insurer, so the insurance company did not breach any duty it may have had under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.

Del Grosso v. Surface Transportation Board

(United States First Circuit) - Rejected a petition for review of a decision of the federal Surface Transportation Board (STB). The basic issue here was whether a local government could regulate certain activities at a rail-to-truck transloading facility. The petitioners, who lived near the facility, argued that the STB did not have exclusive jurisdiction and thus local regulation was permitted. Finding no basis to reverse the STB's ruling regarding the scope of its exclusive jurisdiction, the First Circuit rejected the petition for review.

Agreeing with the district court, the First Circuit held that the tribe's claims were barred by federal sovereign immunity and lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
