Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit November 5, 2004, 03-4344, 03-4345 (Robert J. Matz, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Household International Tax Reduction Investment Plan, Cross-Appellee)

POSNER, Circuit Judge.

The district judge, in this suit by participants in an ERISA pension plan, has asked us, and we have agreed, to entertain an interlocutory appeal from a ruling in which she answered in favor of the plaintiffs a potentially controlling question of law that had arisen in the course of the litigation. 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b).
