Massive Lowe s, Aon ERISA Class Action Heads Toward Trial
Law360 (February 12, 2021, 7:30 PM EST) A North Carolina federal judge on Friday shot down dueling summary bids for victory from Lowe s, Aon Hewitt and a group of around 250,000 current and former Lowe s employees in a 401(k) mismanagement class action, saying a jury needed to weigh the facts of the case.
U.S. District Judge Kenneth Bell said none of the parties were due a win in former Lowe s employee Benjamin Reetz s suit, which accused Lowe s Cos. Inc. and Aon Hewitt Investment Consulting Inc. of flouting their Employee Retirement Income Security Act duties. The class was certified in November.

Darren Matthews
Federal officials say Matthews will serve a lifetime of supervised release and will have to register as a sex offender when he gets out of prison.
Detectives say in November of 2019 the Catawba County Sheriff’s Office received information that Matthews was emailing images of child pornography, and court records show that the images depicted children, some as young as toddlers, being sexually abused.
On November 22nd, 2019 police searched Matthews’ home and took numerous electronic devices to find more than 1,300 files of child porn in his possession, investigators say.
Detectives say Matthews plead guilty to having child pornography in August of 2020, and is being held in federal custody until he is placed in a designated federal facility.
