A Withdrawal and Borrowing of Money from the TSP During ServiceSeveral courts have held that the spouse may collect the spousal portion of the retirement at eligibility for retirement, whether or not the member actually retires.2 Hypothelical. The parties have one child. Father ("F") earns $10,000 per month and has the children 43% of the time. Mother ("M") earns $5,000 per month and has the children 57% of the time. Ms. Rivero and the Family Law Section assert that this court should clarify the definition of joint physical custody to determine whether it requires a specific timeshare agreement. The Family Law Section suggests that we define joint physical custody by requiring that each parent have physical custody of the child at least 40 percent of the time. In accordance with this suggestion, and for the reasons set forth below, we clarify Nevada's definition of joint physical custody pursuant to Nevada statutes and caselaw and create parameters to clarify which timeshare arrangements qualify as joint physical custody. And, once reported, it is incumbent on the organized Bar to investigate and punish mis-use of confidential information, if we are going to assert that the sanctity of client confidences is accorded anything more than lip service. The failure to do so provides an unwarranted advantage to clients hiring ethically challenged lawyers, and puts those complying with the ethical rules at a competitive disadvantage in ongoing litigation. The husband had a medical practice. The district court classified the medical practice as community property and awarded the practice to the husband. The court valued the practice at $32,765, of which $25,000 was business good will, the remainder being accounts receivable, equipment and cash. Savvy trial lawyers have long used peremptory challenges tactically. Supreme Court Rule 48.1 has, at least since 1982, permitted an attorney for either side to remove a case from a judicial department and have it randomly re-assigned. This has permitted counsel to prevent cases from being heard in places where the lawyer perceives the assigned judge’s predisposition, or prejudices, might result in an unfavorable ruling. The theory is that, since both parties have the same right, by default most cases will be heard in a department that is at least acceptably neutral to both sides. The court scrutinized the case law and held that "there is no real distinction between ordinary residence and habitual residence." The court declared the minor’s habitual residence at the time of the removal to be the place where he had been living with both of his parents and attending school for the previous six months, finding that six months is "a significant period of time for a four-year old child." The court specifically adopted a child-centered view of habitual residence. Specifically, the court said that habitual residence is determined by looking back in time, and determining the place, at the moment of removal, where the child had been physically present for a sufficient amount of time to show a settled purpose to be, focusing on the child’s circumstances. Where the child was in school, a home had been purchased, and the parents were working, the court considered that the test was easily met. Washington X Third, there is a factual question as to whether any such "deceptive conduct" ever occurred, or even was found to have occurred. We have not noted a citation to the record showing the district court making specific findings that Father delayed Mother¡¯s filing by way of affirmative acts of deception (falsely promising to return the children to Nevada). In a joint-but-not-equal-custody situation, under our proposal, if the minority time-share parent were granted a custodial schedule of 43% of the time, the trial court would find a prima facie case for downward deviation, and proceed to the benefit/detriment balancing test, considering the potential deviation at issue to be $121 ¨C the difference between guideline support, and support payable in a Wright/Wesley analysis. 5. Offset resulting amounts under subd. 4. against each other. The parent with a greater child support obligation is the shared-placement payer. The shared-placement payer shall pay the lesser of the amount determined under this subd. or the amount determined using the appropriate percentage standard under s. DCF 150.03 (1). If the shared-placement payer is also a low-income payer, the child support obligation may be the lesser of the amount determined under this subd. or under sub. (4). They "should be aware" because if the program is not being monitored closely enough to see that disputes being filed in one year are being resolved two years later, it is not being monitored at all. And if this problem has been seen but not addressed, the failure is one of will, or effort, either of which is unacceptable. It must not require payments to an alternate payee before the retirement of a member or the distribution to or withdrawal of contributions by a member. The affirmance on appeal centered on the Nevada Supreme Court’s approval of the primary holding - that Davidson had committed "fraud upon the court," which is not subject to NRCP 60(b)(3)’s six-month limitations period, and can be addressed by a court at any time, even sua sponte. See Murphy v. Murphy, 103 Nev. 185, 186, 734 P.2d 738, 739 (1987). The former spouse must not yet be age 65. Upon eligibility for Medicare (Part A), CHAMPUS eligibility ends. Some continuing benefits for former spouses may be available under the "TRICARE-for-life" program effective October 1, 2001.4 In 1995, at the urging of the State Bar of Nevada Family Law Section, the Nevada Supreme Court made compliance with the standards of conduct embodied in the 1991 Bounds an aspirational goal of every lawyer and pro se litigant involved in family law cases in Clark County, by adoption of EDCR 5.04. The problems with retirement benefits orders that are badly drafted, or not drafted at all, got an increasing amount of attention, and was made the subject of the Advanced Track seminar at the annual meeting of the Nevada State Bar Family Law Section at Ely in March. The wife was awarded temporary support. The statute provided that in any suit for divorce the court "may, in its discretion, . . . require the husband to pay such sums as may be necessary . . . for the wife’s support . . . during the pendency of such suit" citing to NRS 125.040. The husband contended that under the statute an allowance for temporary alimony was based on the necessity of the wife, and that the evidence showed that the wife did not have necessitous circumstances. The wife contended that the law did not require her to finance her divorce case from her own separate funds while the husband paid for his litigation out of the joint or community properties of the parties. The Court held that the statute did not limit awards for temporary alimony to those cases where the wife was destitute or practically so. The Court held that the statute contemplated such awards when, the facts, circumstances, and situation of the parties, are such that in fairness to the wife she should be given financial assistance for her support during the pendency of the action. The Court concluded that temporary alimony should not be denied because the wife possessed a separate estate where the income therefrom was not sufficient for her support, and she need not resort to the body of her estate before calling on that of her husband. Several courts have held that the spouse may collect the spousal portion of the retirement at eligibility for retirement, whether or not the member actually retires.2 a) If a parent produces credible evidence that the approximate number exercised differs from the number granted by the custody or parenting time order, credit the number according to the evidence without requiring someone to formally petition to modify the custody or parenting time order. SUP> Given these developments, and the time and place that they were being debated and implemented, it is unsurprising that Nevada followed suit. The original territorial laws were non-specific, stating only in Chapter 33, Section 25, that in granting a divorce, "the court shall also make such disposition of the property of the parties, as shall appear just and equitable, having regard to the respective merits of the parties, and to the condition in which they will be left by such divorce, and to the party through whom the property was acquired, and to the burdens imposed upon it, for the benefit of the children." A legal note from Marshal Willick about a United States Supreme Court decision altering the meaning of "custody rights" in international child abduction cases The confusion stemmed from a series of Nevada Supreme Court opinions which seemingly advocated "equal distribution."1 At the same time, however, the Court had issued decisions rebuffing appeals from orders dividing property unequally.2 Where a defendant has not made an appearance in an action, a default judgment (for temporary or permanent orders) may only be obtained upon affidavit stating that the person against whom default is requested is not in the military.5 If it appears that a person against whom default is sought is a member of the armed services, default may not be entered against the member until the court appoints an attorney for the member, who is then charged with the duty to "not waive any defense" until the member is located.6 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.
