United States First Circuit

In a plaintiff's claim for long term disability benefits from his employer, the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of defendant is reversed where, because the plan contained no clear delegation of authority to defendant's denial of the claim, defendant's decision was not entitled to deference by the district court.
