Before EASTERBROOK, MANION, and KANNE, Circuit Judges.


EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

This case has been whittled down to a single issue: whether demands made in pleadings and interrogatories count as written requests to a plan administrator for purposes of § 105(a) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, 29 U.S.C. § 1025(a). A magistrate judge, sitting by mutual consent under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), answered "no"; we concur.
