KRAVITCH, Senior Circuit Judge:
This case, brought under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461, presents questions of subject matter jurisdiction, federal preemption, and statute of limitations.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama (“Blue Cross”) sued Doyle G. Sanders and Tina M. Sanders (“the Sanderses”) under ERISA, 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(3)(B). The district court denied summary judgment to the Sanderses and granted summary judgment to Blue Cross. See Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Ala. v. Sanders, 974 F.Supp. 1416 (N.D.Ala.1997). We affirm.
