212026P.pdf   09/02/2022  Frederick Rozo  v.  Principal Life Insurance Co.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-2026
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central   
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Colloton and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] Civil case - ERISA. For the court's prior opinion in the matter holding defendant was a fiduciary, see Rozo v. Principal Life Ins. Co., 949 F.3d 1071 (8th Cir. 2021). On remand, the district court found defendant had not breached its fiduciary duties to participants in the Principal Fixed Income Option 401(k) plan; the deducts defendant took were reasonable and represented its reasonable expenses of administering the plan; the district court did not clearly err in finding that the deducts were set in the participant's interests; with respect to plaintiff's claim that defendant engaged in prohibited self-dealing, defendant was exempt from liability for receiving reasonable compensation.
