Usenko v. MEMC LLC

by
Plaintiff, a former employee of Semi, filed a derivative lawsuit on behalf of a defined-contribution retirement savings plan and, in the alternative, as a putative class action on behalf of plan participants, claiming that Semi and others breached their fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). The Eighth Circuit affirmed the district court's dismissal of the complaint for failure to state a claim and held that, under Fifth Third Bancorp v. Dudenhoeffer, 573 U.S. 409 (2014), plaintiff's allegations were insufficient to plausibly state a claim for breach of the duty of prudence. Finally, the court affirmed the denial of plaintiff's motion for leave to amend his complaint because he failed to submit a proposed amended complaint with his motion. View "Usenko v.
