# United States Court of Appeals **For the Eighth Circuit**

___________________________ No. 13-3721

___________________________ Kelly Moberg lllllllllllllllllllll Plaintiff - Appellant
v. Phillips Electronics North America Co rporation Group Welfare Benefit Plan; Phillips Electronics North America Corporation lllllllllllllllllllll Defendants - Appellees

____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Fayetteville

____________ Submitted: August 6, 2014 Filed: August 15, 2014 [Unpublished]

____________ Before BYE, SMITH, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.

____________ PER CURIAM.Kelly Moberg appeals the district court’s 1 order affirming the denial of continued long term disability benefits (LTD) in her action under the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Upon de novo review, we find that the district court used the corr ect standard of review, see Siegel v. Conn. Gen. Life Ins. Co. , 702 F.3d 1044, 1047-48 (8th Cir. 2013); and that the court properly applied that standard in determining whether to uphold the decision to discontinue Moberg’s LTD based on a 24-month limitation covering disa bilities from neuromusculoskeletal and soft tissue disorders, see Gerhardt v. Liberty Life Assurance Co. of Boston , 736 F.3d 777, 780 (8th Cir. 2013) (reviewing de novo district court’s application of abuse-ofdiscretion standard; plan administrator’s d ecision will be upheld if reasonable, i.e., supported by substantial evidence). Specifically , we agree with the district court that there was no merit to Moberg’s contention th at the limitation did not apply to her, or to her contentions concerning certain exceptions to the limitation. 2 The judgment of the district court is affirmed.

______________________________

1 The Honorable Jimm Larry Hendren, Un ited States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.

Re:

Reference for a preliminary ruling — Corte Suprema di Cassazione — Interpretation of Articles 2(1) and 9(1) of the Sixth VAT Directive 77/388/EEC of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes — Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment (OJ 1977 L 145, p. 1) — Subsidiary, organised as a producer unit of a company established in another Member State — Whether the branch can be considered an independent person and the ‘arm's length’ standard laid down in the OECD model Convention on double taxation can be applied

Operative part of the judgment

Articles 2(1) and 9(1) of Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes — Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment, must be interpreted as meaning that a fixed establishment, which is not a legal entity distinct from the company of which it forms part, established in another Member State and to which the company supplies services, should not be treated as a taxable person by reason of the costs imputed to it in respect of those supplies.

PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF MOTIONS TO SUSPEND THE RULES AND WAIVING 
A REQUIREMENT OF CLAUSE 6(a) OF RULE XIII WITH RESPECT TO CONSIDERATION 
      OF CERTAIN RESOLUTIONS REPORTED FROM THE COMMITTEE ON RULES

                                _______

    Ms. Sutton, from the Committee on Rules, submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

                      [To accompany H. Res. 1526]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 1526, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

                SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

    The resolution allows the Speaker to entertain motions to 
suspend the rules through the legislative day of October 3, 
2008. The Speaker or her designee shall consult with the 
Minority Leader or his designee on the designation of any 
matter for consideration pursuant to this resolution. The 
resolution waives the requirement of clause 6(a) of rule XIII, 
requiring a two-thirds vote to consider a rule on the same day 
it is reported from the Rules Committee. This would allow for 
same day consideration of any resolution reported by the Rules 
Committee through the legislative day of October 3, 2008. The 
rule provides that House Resolution 1516 is laid upon the 
table.
