The following new briefs have been posted to the DOL/SOL Website: SOL Fair Labor Standards: Lockheed Martin Corp. v. Administrative Review Board, brief for the Administrative Review Board Description: Whether substantial evidence supports the determination of the ALJ, as affirmed by the Board, that Brown's protected activity was a contributing factor in Lockheed's constructive discharge of Brown. SOL Plan Benefits Security: Faber v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., amicus, letter in response to the court's invitation Description: The Secretary concludes that because the plan documents contemplate the delivery of benefits in retained asset accounts, the use of the retained asset account ends the fiduciary's obligations and therefore the accounts themselves do not contain plan assets subject to continuing fiduciary obligations.

Santomenno v.
