Wright grants the pension benefit plan trustee's motion for judicial notice as to two exhibits, but denies it as to 18 more, and grants its motion to dismiss as to a claim of co-fiduciary liability brought by the employee but denies it otherwise. The exhibits for which notice is denied are largely unrelated to the parties involved in this case, but existence of the news report and website for which notice is granted are adjudicative facts for which notice can be granted. The co-fiduciary duty claim is dismissed along with claims against the employer's principal, which fail because they do not adequately allege a fiduciary role for him. Claims against the trustee for breach of duties of prudence and loyalty survive, as do claims against the employer for co-fiduciary liability and failure to monitor.
