In landmark decisions on June 26, 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) definition of spouse as unconstitutional and, without reaching the merits, effected the reinstatement of same-sex marriage in California.

These Supreme Court rulings will certainly have an impact on employee benefit plans and policies.

Join Gayle Skolnik, Partner, and Megan Hladilek, Associate, with Faegre Baker Daniels as they discuss the implications of these decisions and the key considerations for employee benefit plan sponsors and administrators, including considerations for employer-sponsored retirement plans, health and welfare plans, and FMLA policies. Key issues include:
•What types of plans and policies will be affected by these decisions?
•What plan amendments and design changes are necessary or advisable in the wake of these decisions?
•Which state’s law will apply to determine the validity of a participant’s same-sex marriage for purposes of benefits governed by federal law?
•What guidance can be expected from the IRS and DOL?
