Will I be contacted when a presiding judge is assigned to my
case?
You may not be notified on the date that a presiding judge is assigned; however, that judge
generally will contact the parties shortly after his or her assignment to begin processing of the
case.
Please note that in ERISA cases, you are required to take affirmative action to file an
"answer." You should not wait for a contact from OALJ before filing this answer.
Information on ERISA cases under OALJ's jurisdiction is found at OALJ's Law Library ERISA Directory.
