Raybourne v. Cigna Life Ins. Co. of New York, No. 08-2754
In a dispute involving a denial of long-term disability benefits, district court judgment is vacated and remanded where, although the court properly reviewed defendant's decision under the abuse-of-discretion standard, the case must be remanded to allow the court to adequately account for defendant's structural conflict of interest as required by the decision in Glenn.
