Equal distribution of community propertyC) in the case of a division of property, specifically provides for the payment of an amount, expressed in dollars or as a percentage of disposable retired pay, from the disposable ret red pay of a member to the spouse or form er spouse of that member. When the new claim appears to be one legitimately litigated, under other circumstances, in the Civil/Criminal division (such as a marital tort), the Court has a third possible course. Using the persuasive powers of the Bench, the Court can attempt to compel, or at least "corral," both counsel into a stipulation on the record regarding the scope of the marital tort claims, and tailor the methodology and relief available upon mutually agreeable terms of the parties. B> Alimony has been described as "the last greatcoat shoot in family law." More specifically, bo legislative and judicial guidance on the topic a so vague as to be largely useless in predicting, negotiating, actual cases. This, in turn, increases bo the costs and uncertainties of all litigation touching c the subject. This article discusses a bit about when we have been on this topic, what has been tried, ai suggests the apparent root of the problem, and when we might go from here. The Krempin court approvingly quoted the conclusion reached in a law review article: "´A majority of state courts,’ on one theory or another, ´take equitable action to compensate the former spouse’ when that spouse’s share of retirement pay is reduced by the other’s post-judgment waiver."4 It then added its own conclusion, that: "A review of the out-of-state precedents confirms that this result is nearly universal."5 SPAN> Where the court will not do so, the attorney for the spouse has something of a dilemma. Most courts permit almost any stipulated settlement reached during "arm’s-length" negotiations, however, and it might be in the interests of both the member and the former spouse, given the certain costs and uncertain results of trial, to trade a few percentage points of value for a stipulated award of irrevocable alimony (or secured stream of payments characterized in some other way). C) in the case of a division of property, specifically provides for the payment of an amount, expressed in dollars or as a percentage of disposable retired pay, from the disposable ret red pay of a member to the spouse or form er spouse of that member. The recited facts show that the parties and children made several moves back and forth between the U.S. and Japan, finally living in Japan with the children. In 2003, the mother, the three children, and the father’s parents traveled to the U.S. All sides agree that the mutual consent of the parties was that the mother and children would return to Japan at some future date. Obviously, if the employee manages to reduce or eliminate the value of the TSP prior to a court-ordered division, that fact should be discovered and taken into account. Anecdotal accounts, however, indicate that some trial courts continue to be misled into ruling to the contrary, based upon an overly-expansive reading of Mansell and misplaced concerns about violating the Supremacy Clause, or simply by seeing the word "disability" and reacting without any sort of adequate inquiry into what the law is, or why. For the same reason, a separate Notice of Petition Under Hague Convention, also known as Notice of Hearing, should probably be filed, in addition to the statement of notice of hearing in the Petition itself, although local rules may govern this choice. The UCCJA was adopted as law in all 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the Virgin Islands. A number of adoptions, however, significantly departed from the original text. In addition, almost thirty years of litigation since the promulgation of the UCCJA produced substantial inconsistency in interpretation by state courts. As a result, the goals of the UCCJA were rendered unobtainable in many cases. Practitioners must thus have a clear understanding of the definitions applicable in the forum State (and, if two possible jurisdictions are in contest, the definitions in the other State, as well). Then it is a matter of discovery, looking at all the usual indicia, which are briefly discussed here. UP> In 1986, the California Supreme Court had held in Casas1 that the USFSPA direct payment limitation on state courts was strictly procedural. At least one California case went further, declaring that where the original divorce decree predated McCarty (i.e., June 26, 1981), the existence of a disability is simply irrelevantto the divorce court’s equal division of retirement (and disability) benefits.2 The 1989 United States Supreme Court decision in Mansell3 made all such prior authority questionable. The third group is made up of members who entered service on or after August 1, 1986. That year, Congress had arranged to provide retirement benefits to those members that were lowered in two different ways. Since, as detailed below, military members are now participants in the TSP program, there are multiple instances in which an attorney noting a disability in a military case should become concerned with the TSP account. To initiate a "deemed election," the former spouse must file a written request with the appropriate Service Secretary requesting that the election be deemed to have been made. The written request must be filed within one year of the date of the court order.4 There are various technical requirements. All property, both real and personal, of a married person owned or claimed by such person before marriage, and that acquired afterward by gift, devise or descent, shall be the separate property of such person. The legislature shall more clearly define the rights of married persons in relation to their separate property and other property. Some points are obvious, such as how long the member has been in the jurisdiction, and where the member does his banking. Consider asking the question "Where is home?" in deposition, and find out if the member has made any kind of pronouncement of his present or future plans. We now discuss primary physical custody to contrast it with joint physical custody and to clarify its definition. A parent has primary physical custody when he or she has physical custody of the child subject to the district court's power to award the other parent visitation rights. See, e.g., Ellis, 123 Nev. at 147, 161 P.3d at 240. The focus of primary physical custody is the child's residence. The party with primary physical custody is the party that has the primary responsibility for maintaining a home for the child and providing for the child's basic needs. See Barbagallo, 105 Nev. at 549,779 P.2d at 534 (discussing primary custodians and custodial parents in the context of child support); see Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-6-402(4) (2005) (defining "primary residential parent" as the parent with whom the child resides for more than 50 percent of the time). This focus on residency is consistent with NRS 125C.01O, which requires that a court, when ordering visitation, specify the "habitual residence" of the child. Thus, the determination of who has primary physical custody revolves around where the child resides. Five years later, in Bush v. Taylor,3 the Eighth Circuit concurred as to the non-dischargeability of the former spouse’s future interest in payments to the former spouse, but held that any sums paid to the member and kept rather than being paid to the former spouse were retained by the member wrongfully, and he remained liable despite the bankruptcy for the full amount of payments that should have, but were not, made to the former spouse. The bankruptcy thus had no impact on the former spouse’s rights.

Most reviewing courts, however, have either found or simply assumed that Mansell is applicable in litigation concerning post-divorce recharacterizations by retirees, and attempted to apply it. Nevertheless, those appellate courts have almost uniformly reached the same conclusions as the court in Krempin, by other means. Much of the final version of the bill merely restated existing law - such as codification of the time rule, or the provision permitting a court order "upon agreement of the parties." Much of the rest is simply inapplicable to anything. For example, paragraph 1(b) is built around the phrase "In determining the value of an interest in or entitlement to a pension or retirement benefit . . . ."
