Summary
The case of Egelhoff v. Egelhoff began as a family dispute in the State of Washington, between two children from a first marriage and a widow from a second marriage, involving $81,000. The case reached its apex in the Supreme Court of the United States because it involved employee welfare and pension plan benefits under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and it affected the administration of ERISA plans throughout the country.
