OPINION OF THE COURT

ALITO, Circuit Judge:

Under Pennsylvania law, when a corporation fails to pay wages and benefits that it owes its employees, the corporation's top officers can be held personally liable for the nonpayments. See, e.g., Carpenters Health and Welfare Fund v. Kenneth R. Ambrose, Inc., 727 F.2d 279, 282-83 (3d Cir.1983); see also Antol v. Esposto, 100 F.3d 1111
