SEATTLE, Oct. 12, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Keller Rohrback L.L.P. (www.erisafraud.com) today announced that it has commenced an investigation against Delta Air Lines, Inc. ("Delta" or the "Company") (NYSE:DAL) for violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The investigation focuses on investments in Company stock by the Delta Family Care Savings Plan (the "Plan") between September 15, 2000 and the present (the "Class Period").
Keller Rohrback's investigation focuses on concerns that Delta and other fiduciaries for the Plan may have breached their ERISA-mandated fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence by (1) failing to prudently and loyally manage the Plan's assets by imprudently investing a significant amount of the Plan's assets in Delta stock; (2) failing to monitor and provide fiduciary appointees with information that the appointing fiduciaries knew or should have known that the monitored fiduciaries needed in order to prudently manage the Plan's assets; (3) failing to provide complete and accurate information to participants and beneficiaries; and (4) breaching their duty to avoid conflicts of interest.
If you are a member of the Delta Family Care Savings Plan and purchased or held Delta stock through the Plan, you may contact paralegal Jennifer Tuato'o, or any member of our team (Erin Riley, Derek Loeser or Lynn Sarko) toll free at 800/776-6044, or via e-mail at investor@kellerrohrback.com.
