1Opinion of the Court
BEAM, Circuit Judge.
Beverly Woo appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment to Hartford Life Insurance Company (Hartford) and Deluxe Corporation (Deluxe). Woo brought suit under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(1)(B), seeking judicial review of Hartford’s denial of her claim for long-term disability benefits. Woo also contends that Deluxe breached its fiduciary duties under ERISA and breached a contract to pay her short-term disability benefits. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for entry of judgment in Woo’s favor.
