1Opinion of the Court

CANBY, Circuit Judge:

Former participants in a multiemployer, collectively-bargained pension plan brought this action under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), 29 U.S.C.A. §§ 1001-1461 (West 1985 & Supp.1993), seeking injunctive and monetary relief against the plan and its trustees. The plaintiffs contend that the plan denied them vested benefits and that the plan’s trustees breached fiduciary duties. The district court granted the defendants summary judgment. We reverse and remand.
