1Opinion of the Court
KRAVITCH, Circuit Judge:
This case presents two questions. The first is whether § 502(a)(1)(B) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(1)(B), authorizes an ERISA plan beneficiary to receive interest on reinstated benefits when the employee-benefit plan (the “Plan”) does not explicitly provide for interest on reinstated benefits. The second question is whether plaintiff-appellant Willie R. Flint has stated a claim under § 502(a)(3)(B) of ERISA, 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(3)(B), that would allow him to recover interest on reinstated benefits.
