of contract claims, for purposes of statutes of limitations. Id. at 1206. However, neither the Tenth Circuit nor the District Courts for the District of Kansas has characterized ERISA § 510 claims under Kansas law. The circuit courts that have considered claims similar to Myers’ have almost unanimously concluded that the most analogous state-law cause of action under § 510 is “wrongful termination” or “retaliatory discharge,” catchall descriptions of state-law causes of action encompassing an employee’s claim that he was discharged in violation of public policy. See Teumer v. General Motors, 34 F.3d 542, 549-50 (7th Cir.1994) (retaliatory discharge encompassing interference “with the exercise of favored rights.”); Burrey v. Pacific Gas & Elec. Co., 159 F.3d 388, 397 (9th Cir.1998) (<HOLDING>); Byrd v. MacPapers, Inc., 961 F.2d 157, 159
