• Majority of circuits have held that ERISA claims do not entitle a plaintiff to a jury trial
• “We have held, as have the majority of the other circuits, that ERISA claims do not entitle a plaintiff to a jury trial right.”
• “Because we do not consider whether or not a partial vertical (or horizontal) termination occurred, the district court’s ruling on this issue is not conclusive between the parties.”
