MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
VIRGINIA EMERSON HOPKINS, District Judge.Before the court is Defendants’ Motion To Dismiss Plaintiffs State Law Claims, Claims for Punitive and Extracontractual Damages, and To Strike Demand for Jury Pursuant to ERISA (the “Motion To Dismiss”). (Doc. 5). The time allotted for a response pursuant to the court’s Uniform Initial Order (Doc. 6, App. Ill) has expired and Plaintiff has not responded. Therefore, the Motion To Dismiss is now under submission and ripe for the court’s decision.
I. PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
Plaintiff Robin Earns (“Plaintiff’) originally filed this breach' of contract action in the Circuit Court of Etowah County, Alabama, on February 2, 2012. (Doc. 1 ¶ 1; id. at Ex. A. at Compl. at 1). According to her complaint, Plaintiff claims that Defendants “wrongly terminated [her] long term disability benefits effective March 7, 2011.” (Doc. 1 at Ex. A. at Compl. ¶ 4). Because of Defendants’ alleged breach of contract, including their bad faith in failing to properly investigate her claim, Plaintiff seeks to recover long-term disability insurance benefits in a lump sum payment equal to the present value of past and future benefits. (Id. ¶¶ 6, 11). Plaintiff identified Defendant American United Life Insurance Company as the party that issued her contract for long-term disability insurance coverage (id. ¶ 1), and she alleged that Defendant Disability Reinsurance Management Services, Inc., served as the claims administrator of the insurance policy. (Id. ¶ 4).
Defendants jointly removed the litigation to federal court on March 12, 2012, *1296asserting federal question jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1441 as the basis for this court’s jurisdiction. (Doc. 1 at 1). Namely, Defendants contended that this case is removable because Plaintiff has asserted claims that arise under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. § 1001, et seq. On March 30, 2012, Plaintiff filed a Motion To Remand, asserting that her claims do not arise under ERISA. (Doc. 7). Concluding that Plaintiffs state law claims are completely preempted by ERISA, and thus, federal jurisdiction properly existed to support removal, the court denied the Motion To Remand in its Memorandum Opinion and Order entered contemporaneously on this date.
In their Motion To Dismiss, Defendants ask the court to dismiss Plaintiffs state law claims, including related claims for extracontractual and punitive damages, and to strike Plaintiffs jury demand, because such claims are preempted by ERISA. For good cause shown, and for the reasons explained below, the Motion To Dismiss is due to be GRANTED.
II. MOTION TO DISMISS STANDARD
A Rule 12(b)(6) motion attacks the legal sufficiency of the complaint. See Fed. R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6). The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure require only that the complaint provide “‘a short and plain statement of the claim’ that will give the defendant fair notice of what the plaintiffs claim is and the grounds upon which it rests.” Conley v. Gibson, 355 U.S. 41, 47, 78 S.Ct. 99, 2 L.Ed.2d 80 (1957), abrogated by Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 545, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007); see also Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a).
While a plaintiff must provide the grounds of his entitlement to relief, Rule 8 does not mandate the inclusion of “detailed factual allegations” within a complaint. Twombly, 550 U.S. at 545, 127 S.Ct. 1955 (quoting Conley, 355 U.S. at 47, 78 S.Ct. 99). However at the same time, “it demands more than an unadorned, the-defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 1949, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009). “[0]nce a claim has been stated adequately, it may be supported by showing any set of facts consistent with the allegations in the complaint.” Twombly, 550 U.S. at 563, 127 S.Ct. 1955.
“[A] court considering a motion to dismiss can choose to begin by identifying pleadings that, because they are no more than conclusions, are not entitled to the assumption of truth.” Iqbal, 129 S.Ct. at 1950. ‘While legal conclusions can provide the framework of a complaint, they must be supported by factual allegations.” Iqbal, 129 S.Ct. at 1950. “When there are well-pleaded factual allegations, a court should assume their veracity and then determine whether they plausibly give rise to an entitlement to relief.” Id. (emphasis added). The court therefore “accept[s] as true the facts set forth in the complaint and draw[s] all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor.” Randall v. Scott, 610 F.3d 701, 705 (11th Cir.2010). “Under Twombly’s construction of Rule 8 ... [a plaintiffs] complaint [must] ‘nudge[ ][any] claims’ ... ‘across the line from conceivable to plausible.’ Ibid.” Iqbal, 129 S.Ct. at 1950-51.
A claim is plausible on its face “when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.” Iqbal, 129 S.Ct. at 1949. “The plausibility standard is not akin to a ‘probability requirement,’ but it asks for *1297more than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.” Id. (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556, 127 S.Ct. 1955).
Thus, “[a] district court considering a motion to dismiss shall begin by identifying conclusory allegations that are not entitled to an assumption of truth — legal conclusions must be supported by factual allegations. The district court should assume, on a case-by-case basis, that well pleaded factual allegations are true, and then determine whether they plausibly give rise to an entitlement to relief.” Randall, 610 F.3d at 709-710.
III. ANALYSIS
A. Complete Preemption of State Law Claims
Defendants first ask that the court “dismiss Plaintiffs state law claims of breach of contract and bad faith (Count Two) and require Plaintiff to amend Count I of her Complaint to assert an ERISA cause of action.” (Doc. 5 at 8). As explained in the court’s Memorandum Opinion entered this date, “[i]f a state law claim is completely preempted [by an Act of Congress], courts are required to recharacterize the claim as one arising under federal law for purposes of determining removal jurisdiction.” Engelhardt v. Paul Revere Life Ins. Co., 139 F.3d 1346, 1353 (11th Cir.1998) (emphasis added). It is well settled that Congress, through ERISA, has accomplished “complete preemption” of a plaintiffs state law claims where relief is available under 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a). Engelhardt, 139 F.3d at 1353 (citing Kemp v. International Business Machines Corp., 109 F.3d 708, 712 (11th Cir.1997)); see also 29 U.S.C. § 1144(a) (stating explicitly that ERISA’s provisions “shall supersede any and all State laws insofar as they may now or hereafter relate to any employee benefit plan described in section 1003(a) of this title and not exempt under section 1003(b) of this title”).
Because the court concluded in its contemporaneous opinion denying Plaintiffs remand motion that both of Plaintiffs claims in her two-count complaint are completely preempted by ERISA, her state law claims must be converted to ERISA claims. Engelhardt, 139 F.3d at 1353; accord Ervast v. Flexible Products Co., 346 F.3d 1007, 1014 (11th Cir.2003) (“Super preemption ... recharacterizes the state law claim into a federal claim under [42 U.S.C.] § 1132 ....” (emphasis in original)); Hicks v. Am. United Life Ins. Co., Civil Action No. 5:10-cv-1401-CLS, Doc. 26 at 23 (N.D.Ala. Jan. 19, 2011) (Smith, J.) (requiring recharacterization of state law claims into ERISA claims in the context of complete preemption). Therefore, Defendants’ Motion To Dismiss is due to be granted to the extent that Plaintiff will be required to recharacterize her state law claims into ERISA claims. Consistent with Judge Smith’s approach in Hicks, the court will grant leave for plaintiff to “re-plead her complaint as one sounding in ERISA.” Hicks, No. 5:10-cvl401-CLS, Doc. 26 at 25. Accordingly, Plaintiff must file her amended complaint, recasting her claims as claims sounding in ERISA, no later than twenty-one (21) days from the date of this order. Defendants must file their respective answers within ten (10) days of Plaintiffs filing of her amended complaint.
B. Punitive Damages Not Permitted
Second, Defendants ask the court to “dismiss Plaintiffs request for punitive damages.” (Doc. 5 at 8). This *1298request is due to be granted because claims for punitive damages are barred under ERISA. Godfrey v. BellSouth Telecommc’ns, Inc., 89 F.3d 755, 761 (11th Cir.1996) (“In Bishop v. Osborn Transportation, Inc., 838 F.2d 1173 (11th Cir.1988) ... this Court held that ERISA ... do[es] not provide for extra-contractual or punitive damages.”); see also Hicks, No. 5:10-cv-1401-CLS, Doc. 26 at 23 (“Plaintiffs claims for extracontractual damages and punitive damages are due to be dismissed because such damages are not recoverable under ERISA.” (citing cases)); Langley v. Life Ins. Co. of N. Am., Case No. 2:06-cv-786-VEH, Doc. 10 at 5 (N.D.Ala. June 29, 2006) (dismissing plaintiffs claim for punitive damages because they are “barred under ERISA,” citing Godfrey).
C. No Right to Jury Trial
Similarly, there is no right to a jury trial in an ERISA case. Stewart v. KHD Deutz of Am. Corp., 75 F.3d 1522, 1527 (11th Cir.1996); see also Hicks, No. 5:10-cv-1401-CLS, Doc. 26 at 24 (“[T]he Eleventh Circuit has routinely held that plaintiffs are not entitled to a jury trial pursuant to the provisions of ERISA.” (citing cases)); Langley, No. 2:06-cv-786-VEH, Doc. 10 at 3-4 (“There is no right to a jury trial in an ERISA case. Therefore, LINA’s motion is due to be, and hereby is, GRANTED insofar as it seeks to have Plaintiffs jury demand struck.” (citing Stewart)). Therefore, Defendants’ third request to strike Plaintiffs demand for a jury trial (see Doc. 5 at 8) is due to be granted.
IV. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, Defendants’ Motion To Dismiss is due to be, and is hereby, GRANTED in full, as set out above.
