1Opinion of the Court
E. GRADY JOLLY, Circuit Judge:
Employees of an insurance company complain that the defendants violated their rights under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001 et seq., by failing to discharge them when the company faced imminent dissolution and by maladministering their retirement benefit plan. They argue that, through their ERISA violations, the defendants denied them the opportunity to receive enhanced retirement benefits. We find no violation of ERISA, and thus affirm the district court’s dismissal of all claims.
