1Opinion of the Court
BEAM, Circuit Judge.
This consolidated appeal arises from the district court’s 1 orders resolving two actions brought against Lincoln National Health Plan of Kansas City, Inc. (Lincoln National) as a result of the death of its insured, Buddy Kuhl. The district court held that the plaintiffs’ state law claims against Lincoln National were preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461, and that ERISA did not authorize the recovery of monetary damages for Lincoln National’s alleged misconduct. We affirm both orders of the district court.
