Description

Five former employees (collectively "the Employees") of Edgewater Steel Company (Edgewater Steel) appeal an order of the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania granting summary judgment in favor of Edgewater Steel, Edgewater Corporation and John H. Kirkwood (Kirkwood) on all but one claim in the Employees complaint brought under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), 29 U.S.C.A. Â§Â§ 1001-1371 (West 1985 & Supp. 1990). The Employees also appeal the district courts dismissal of their state law misrepresentation claims and its denial of their motion for leave to amend the complaint and their motion to compel the production of documents. Edgewater Steel and the other defendants (collectively "Edgewater") have cross-appealed the district courts entry of summary judgment in favor of three of the employees, Donald Berger (Berger), Barbara Dallas (Dallas) and Robert Wagner (Wagner). The district court awarded early retirement benefits to these three employees based on its holding that Edgewater violated ERISA.
