   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-2641
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Gruender and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - ERISA. The defendant insurer had a fiduciary role in the 
   deceased's attempt to seek supplemental life insurance and its ability to 
   determine her eligibility for supplemental life insurance made it a 
   fiduciary for her application process; the defendant insurer breached its 
   fiduciary duties of prudence and loyalty by failing to maintain an 
   effective enrollment system and by receiving the deceased's premiums 
   without giving her a corresponding benefit of coverage; the district court 
   did not err in granting summary judgment to the plaintiff and in holding 
   the defendant insurer liable for the supplemental life insurance claim.
