   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-1641
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Wollman and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - ERISA. District court properly applied the 
   abuse-of-discretion standard in reviewing the plan administrator's 
   decision to deny plaintiff's claim for long-term disability benefits as 
   the administrator retained discretion to interpret the plan and determine 
   eligibility for benefits under the terms of the plan; plan administrator 
   did not abuse its discretion by denying the claim on the merits.
