Below is a link to an article regarding attempts to convince the U.S. Supreme Court to set a uniform standard in determining whether ERISA claims should be dismissed or allowed to proceed. These briefs as submitted argue that the ERISA law has been applied incorrectly by the lower courts and there is not set standard in determining how to cases proceed.
