Community Property life estateThe TSP will also honor post-decree orders, which it refers to as "amendatory court orders," and which presumably include nunc pro tunc amendments to decrees and partition judgments relating to omitted assets. UP> It is possible for a former spouse to contest the discharge in bankruptcy of an obligation to remit to the former spouse a portion of retired pay, by attacking it as a "fraud while acting in a fiduciary capacity" or a tortious "debt for willful and malicious injury."1 Litigation in bankruptcy court may cause that court to carry into effect the divorce courts orders.2 At least one court has held a designation of the former spouse as the Survivors Benefit Plan beneficiary was a non-dischargeable transfer and not a "debt" subject to discharge in bankruptcy.3 b) Shall, to the extent practicable, make an equal disposition of the community property of the parties, except that the court may make an unequal disposition of the community property in such proportions as it deems just if the court finds a compelling reason to do so and sets forth in writing the reasons for making the unequal disposition. The parties had been negotiating a settlement agreement concerning their property, support obligations, and custody. An agreement was reached and the parties signed. The parties then reconciled and then split up again. Following a trial, the parties were divorced. The wife appealed, in part, the district courts refusal to award attorneys fees. The parties married in 1982. In 1993, the wife filed for divorce. At trial, the wife introduced photographs showing bruises, alleging that husband abused her, and they were admitted for the limited purpose of determining whether her request for an unequal division of community property should be granted. The father received primary physical custody. The district court gave the mother an unequal distribution. The district court also determined that whatever child support obligation remained after a property equalization payment by the mother, she would not be required to pay any child support. When the Senate Judiciary Committee was informed of the various problems with the bill, that evening, instructions were given to have it quietly amended, essentially overnight and with no record other than the bill draft itself, but the Section was informed that it could not be killed entirely, apparently as a matter of comity from chamber to chamber. The worst portions of the bill were removed between June 28 and June 30, 1995; it was redirected to apply solely to PERS retirements, and was reprinted, passed, and returned to the Assembly, which concurred in the amendments without other record. P> NRS 125.155, enacted in 1995, establishes a set of special rules applicable only to PERS retirement benefits in divorce. Officers of the Family Law Section did not discover the proposal until nearly the last day of the legislative session, which in its original form would have significantly altered several spousal protections built into Nevadas community property laws.5 It was quickly altered, but even the remaining portion contains provisions that either appear to run afoul of Nevada Supreme Court holdings,6 or otherwise appear to raise equal protection issues, since they treat participants in PERS differently than participants in all other pension plans. The property settlement agreement provided that the husband was to pay alimony to the wife until her death or remarriage. The agreement did not merge into the decree. The husband sought to terminate payments based upon wife's cohabiting with another man, which he asserted was a common law marriage. The district court declined to do so although it found that the alleged cohabitation has gone on for several years, the relationship was not a defense to the action. A former spouses right to a portion of retired pay as property terminates upon the death of the member or the former spouse; the court order can also provide for an earlier termination.5 Any right to receive payments under the USFSPA is non-transferable; the former spouse may not sell, assign, or transfer his or her rights, or dispose of them by inheritance.6 To obtain benefits extending beyond a members death, the former spouse must obtain designation as the beneficiary of the Survivors Benefit Plan (discussed below), which has its own technical requirements. The Supreme Court reversed. The Court noted that the law favors hearing cases on the merits, if possible. The Court further noted that this policy is heightened in cases involving termination of parental rights. In considering a motion per NRCP 60(b)(1) asking to set aside an order terminating parental rights without appearance of a party, the district court must analyze whether the movant: (1) promptly applied to remove the judgment; (2) lacked intent to delay the proceedings; (3) demonstrated good faith; (4) lacked knowledge of procedural requirements; and (5) tendered a meritorious defense to the claim for relief. In 2001, the Arizona Court of Appeals again dealt with the contract theory, federal law supremacy assertion, and claims of "involuntariness" that appeared in several of the cases discussed above, in Danielson v. Evans.1 Because the divorce at issue occurred after Mansell, the prevailing former spouse in Danielson was held to the "higher standard of clarity" in the underlying decree (discussed above) to protect her interests.

This was apparently the scenario contemplated when the SBP was created in 1972, to provide a monthly annuity to spouses and dependents of retired members of the Uniformed Services. It largely replaced an earlier survivors plan known as the RSFPP,1 which is of little importance here. All members entitled to retired pay are eligible to participate in the SBP,2 under which a survivors annuity is payable after a members death.3 P> Does the order contain language which is not compatible with the Nevada Revised Statutes, Chapter 286? The responses in this section must be "no" for qualification of the QDRO. The TSP will also honor post-decree orders, which it refers to as "amendatory court orders," and which presumably include nunc pro tunc amendments to decrees and partition judgments relating to omitted assets. Military members accrue thirty days of leave each year. If not used, it accrues throughout service, and is worth its monthly equivalent pay, although newer regulations limit the amount of leave that can be accrued to 60 days, with some exceptions. States vary on whether or not unused vacation or sick pay (and thus, by analogy, accrued but unused military leave) constitutes "property" for equitable or community property division. The three-justice dissent would have found that the family court did have jurisdiction to hear the matter, but not because disputes of "this type" were within the family courts explicit jurisdiction. Rather, the dissent reasoned that family court judges were equal to all other district court judges, and on separation of powers grounds, that the Legislature lacked authority "to limit the constitutional powers of a district court judge sitting in the family court division." The dissent would therefore have ruled that a district court judge could resolve the dispute, wherever that judge was sitting, and whether or not the case "involved a subject matter outside the scope of NRS 3.223." The comments to Bound 4.5 contain extensive discussion of the traditional policy bases for prohibiting contingency fees, and citations to authorities indicating why the traditional blanket prohibition on such arrangements are inappropriate. The comments debunk the notion sometimes expressed that contingent fees are "unnecessary" to enable poorer parties to obtain qualified counsel because of the power of the courts to compel a spouse with greater assets to pay fees, and instead state that the expressed public policy bases are not served by a contingent fee ban. The Court noted that NRS 111.105 provided, in pertinent part, that "conveyances of land . . . may be made by deed, signed by the person from whom the estate or interest is intended to pass . . . and acknowledged or proved, and recorded as directed in this chapter." The Court concluded that there was never delivery of the deed to the husbands company or to the husband and wife. The wife argued that the parties had an interest in the property because the purchase agreement had both their names on it. The Court noted that pursuant to NRS 111.105, merely signing a purchase agreement was insufficient to convey an interest in property. The Court held that the district court erred in finding that the wife had an interest in the property and further erred by awarding her a portion of the proceeds from the assignment of that property. It could be concluded that these cases stand for the proposition that it makes no difference how or why the member reduces a divorce courts award to a former spouse - the fact that he does so mandates that compensation be provided. The cautious practitioner, however, cannot presume that a reviewing court will reach the same result, and so will ensure that the property settlement agreement or divorce decree is crafted with sufficient demonstrations of intent (and reservations of jurisdiction, if necessary) that a later reviewing court would be able to transcend recharacterization of the benefits addressed. The standard form clauses are intended to provide a statement of such intent.
