Plaintiff, Syed asserted that when he moved his money from his employer retirement plan directly into an individual retirement account it was not "Other Income" as defined in his policy and therefore MetLife could not use it as an offset against his employer provided (ERISA) long term disability benefits. The court agreed with Syed, that he had not "received" the money, because it was paid directly from his employer's retirement account into an IRS approved IRA and therefore Syed did not receive the money and it could not be considered other income under policy terms. , 2022
