Finding partially for the employee in a four-year dispute, federal Delaware Judge Kent A. Jordan has enjoined E.I. duPont de Nemours Co. from continuing to use an employment start date that has resulted in lower pension payments. In his opinion, Jordan expressed frustration with the 2002 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Co. v. Knudson that limited the equitable relief available to employees when employers violate the Employment Retirement Income Security Act.
