Estoppel equitablec) If the minority time-share parent is exercising more time than 40% determine what child support would be calculated as being if the parents had exactly equal custody, under the Wright/Wesley offset methodology. The range of potential downward deviation for this factor is the difference between guideline support and support calculated under the Wright/Wesley offset methodology. This court reviews the district court's award of attorney fees for an abuse of discretion. Miller v. Wilfong, 121 Nev. 619, 622, 119 P.3d 727,729 (2005). The district court may award attorney fees as a sanction under NRS 18.010(2)(b), NRCP 11, and EDCR 7.60 (b) if it concludes that a party brought a frivolous claim. The district court must determine if there was any credible evidence or reasonable basis for the claim at the time of filing. Semenza v. Caughlin Crafted Homes, III Nev. 1089, 1095,901 P.2d 684, 687-88 (1995) (discussing NRS 18.010(2)(b». Although a district court has discretion to award attorney fees as a sanction, there must be evidence supporting the district court's finding that the claim or defense was unreasonable or brought to harass. Id. The USFSPA set up a federal mechanism for recognizing and enforcing state-court divisions of military retired pay, including definitions. One of these was of "disposable retired pay" (the sum that the military pay center could divide between spouses), which was defined as "the total monthly retired pay" minus certain sums, including sums deducted "as a result of a waiver of retired pay required by law in order to receive compensation under title 5 or title 38"3 or "equal to the amount of retired pay of the member under that chapter computed using the percentage of the member’s disability on the date when the member was retired" for a member retired under chapter 61.4 Although NRS Chapter 125 does not contain a definition of joint physical custody, the legislative history regarding NRS 125.490 reveals the Legislature's understanding of its meaning. Joint physical custody is "[a]warding custody of the minor child or children to BOTH PARENTS and providing Determining the member’s "Tax Home" for payroll purposes might be useful (and can be gleaned from the box on the Leave and Earning Statement ["LES"] under "state tax"). If the member’s claimed tax home is a State that actually charges and collects State income tax, that would be a good indicator of intent to call that place "home" (domicile, in most States). A court which is an appropriate court to exercise initial or modification jurisdiction regarding child custody may nevertheless decline to do so, if the court determines that this is an "inconvenient forum" under NRS 125A.365. The statute reads: c) If the minority time-share parent is exercising more time than 40% determine what child support would be calculated as being if the parents had exactly equal custody, under the Wright/Wesley offset methodology. The range of potential downward deviation for this factor is the difference between guideline support and support calculated under the Wright/Wesley offset methodology. The parties were divorced in July 1963. Temporary physical custody of the two children, a boy and a girl, was given to the mother. In June 1964, the temporary physical custody of the children was given to the father. Over three years later, in November 1967, the mother moved for return of custody to her. In February 1968, after a hearing, the custody was again given to the mother. At that time, the boy was 12 years old and the girl was 10 years old. The district court conferred with the children in chambers. The Court commented that the children had no parental preference and loved both parents. In spite of that statement, the district court found in its findings of fact that the children preferred their mother. The Court noted that the conflict could not be resolved by because the interview in chambers was not preserved for appellate review. The district court also found that both parties were fit to have custody. In November 1921, the wife filed for divorce and requested sole custody of their child and for support. In February 1922, the husband bequeathed all of his property to a third person, with the express condition that she pay to his daughter, $50 per month until the daughter should emancipate. The father also bequeathed his automobile to his daughter with the condition that should she or her guardian attempt to break the will she was to receive only $5. In June 1922, the husband died. The mother then filed a petition requesting that $1,817 in insurance proceeds be collected by the executrix and be declared exempt and set apart for the daughter’s use. The district court ordered that the money be set aside for the daughter. The executrix appealed. The daughter was living with the father at the time of death. The question for the Court was the daughter a member of the father’s family. SPAN> Wallace v. Wallace, 112 Nev. 1015, 922 P.2d 541 (1996)Before a district court may grant grandparental visitation, it must receive evidence and consider all of the factors noted in NRS 125A.340(1). c) In no event shall a parent be required to pay child support under subsection (a) or (b) of this section in an amount greater than the amount that would have been ordered under the support guidelines. The court agreed that contingency fees are permissible in domestic relations actions to collect past-due payments (so long as the fee is reasonable, any court-awarded fees were credited against the contingent fee, and the client was advised of the options of hiring counsel hourly or seeking services from the district attorney's office). Further, the court apparently approved contingency fees in actions to modify property settlements "independent of support issues," taking the time to disagree with Ethics and Professional Responsibility Committee Formal Op. 16 (1993), which had indicated that any property settlement modification "necessarily" affected alimony, making contingent fees impermissible. 2) In the event of effective service of more than one court order which provides for payment to a spouse and one or more former spouses or to more than one former spouse the disposable retired pay of the member shall be used to satisfy (subject to the limitations of paragraph (1)) such court orders on a first-come, first served basis. Such court orders shall be satisfied (subject to the limitations of paragraph (1) out of that amount of disposable retired pay which remains after the satisfaction of all court orders which have been previously served. Second, we conclude that the district court abused its discretion by modifying the custody timeshare arrangement without making specific findings offact that the modification was in the child's best interest. B> A proceeding seeking the return of a child from one signatory country to another is governed by the "The Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, done at the Hague on 25 Oct. 1980" [commonly referred to as "the Hague Convention"], and its implementing legislation, the International Child Abduction Remedies Act ("ICARA").1 The United States of America has been a Contracting State under the Convention since July 1, 1988; there are at this time 52 contracting States.2 Obviously, either approach could be better - or worse - for either party, depending on how much time passes, and whether the account balance increases or decreases during that time, which could be due to market forces having nothing to do with the parties. But in either case, it should be dealt with one way or the other in the decree (preferably) and in any QDRO or other ancillary order dividing the plan benefits (definitely) to avoid what could be considerable litigation as to which possible way to divide benefits was impliedly intended to be done. The Court noted that the relation of husband and wife is one involving the highest trust and confidence. Under both common law and equitable standards, in any transaction, whereby one spouse seeks to obtain the other spouse’s property without adequate compensation, no duress, coercion, undue influence, imposition or overreaching will be tolerated. If no trust was found, and no consideration was paid for the income paid to the wife and reassigned to the husband, the burden of proof would shift to the husband, and would require him to prove affirmatively that the reassignment was executed without undue influence, and that it was entered into freely and voluntarily, also that it was understood by the wife and was fair and equitable to her. A presumption of invalidity arises, which can only be overcome, if at all, by clear evidence of good faith, of full knowledge, and of independent consent and action. 3) The final amount of the child support order is determined by summing what each parent owes for the basic support obligation and additional direct expenses as defined in subdivisions (1) and (2) of this section. The respective sums are then offset, with the parent owing more paying the other parent the difference between the two amounts. Scenario eight shifts the reduced premium the other way, to the member, for the same reasons, and to the same effect, as set out in scenario four, but with smaller totals, since the spousal survivorship interest has been reduced. bsp; a. Concept of a child’s "home state"- where the child has been for 6 months < action Harms could be interpreted as standing for the proposition that a member can divest a spouse by arranging to have a divorce decree entered while out of the country, and ensuring that he remains outside the personal jurisdiction of any State that has procedures for dividing omitted marital property. From the spouse’s perspective, the case highlights the danger of not being sure there is an enforceable order in place at the time of divorce. UP> These effects, would be even more dramatic, in terms of life-long collections, if the worker did not actually retire on his first day of eligibility, but continued working after that point, and if the law did not provide for payment upon eligibility for retirement. In that event, wife one¡¯s already much-reduced shared might not start to be paid for many years thereafter, making her lifetime collections a tiny percentage of the retirement benefits actually paid. While the language is unclear, allowance of this result seems to be what NRS 125.155 is designed to permit. The problem was that every State had its own system of granting and enforcing child custody cases, and there was no reliable mechanism for resolving conflicts when two parties would file in two different States, obtaining inconsistent custodial orders. Ultimately, the federal courts declared themselves unable to resolve conflicting State custody orders,1 leading to stalemate and a great deal of self-help (child snatching). Milton again filed for divorce in 2006. After a two-day trial, the district court (J. Ritchie) entered a divorce decree requiring Milton to pay Abigail $5,000 in monthly spousal support for seven years. Again vacillating, Milton had dinner with Abigail shortly after the decree was entered, and told her he was unhappy that they had divorced and was again considering reconciling. SUP> It may not be necessary to establish a value for defined benefit plans involved in divorce actions at all. If the Court is simply going to divide it by percentage, then determining the present value of the stream of future payments may be of only academic interest. Even if questions of alimony and lifestyle maintenance are before the court, only the dollar sum of the income stream, and not the actuarial value of the plan interest, would appear to be necessary. Accordingly, the Court held that the plan could and should ignore Liv’s divorce-decree waiver of the survivorship benefits, and "did its statutory ERISA duty by paying the benefits to Liv in conformity with the plan documents." The Court noted that a plan administrator is obliged to act "in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan insofar as such documents and instruments are consistent with the provisions of ERISA, and the Act provides no exemption from this duty when it comes time to pay benefits." It would be an error to directly compare post-Mansell cases with those concerning divorce decrees issued prior to Mansell. Courts that have reviewed decrees issued after 1989 have often held the language used in the decree to a higher standard of clarity. This is reasonable, since after Mansell it would be at least theoretically possible for a divorce court to anticipate the question, and issue an order specifically intending to permit or forbid a post-divorce recharacterization of retirement benefits into disability benefits. Emphasis added]. In this case, as detailed above, the people "may not elect" until 2010; it is impossible to do so any sooner, and the appointment should logically be considered to extend until such time as such an election can be held. 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. 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 An example is useful to illustrate this discussion. Presume a member who entered service after 1980 (and did not elect REDUX), was in service for exactly 20 years, and was married to wife one for the first ten, and wife two for the next ten, retiring on the day of divorce from wife two. Presume he had started work at $20,000 per year, and had enjoyed 5% raises every year. That would make his historical earnings look like this: A left-behind parent will have some kind of relationship with the child at issue (i.e., natural parent married to the other parent, putative parent, divorced custodial parent, divorced non-custodial parent, etc.) The first step in determining rights of custody is to determine the relationship between the left-behind parent and the child. In addition to the conditions and difficulties mentioned above, practitioners should keep in mind (and advise their clients) when dealing with the SBP, that an annuity payable to a widow, widower, or former spouse is suspended if the beneficiary remarries before age 55.26 In other words, the client should be advised to not remarry prior to the relevant age, unless willing to forgo continuing payment of the SBP benefits.27 8. After much motion practice, Father filed his Answer in the district court on or about May 16, 2006. 9. The divorce trial took place in or about September, 2006. At this trial, no evidence was permitted from, or offered by, Father because of prior discovery sanctions. Several commentators and researchers have reviewed the cases nationally, reaching the conclusion that post-divorce recharacterization of retired pay as disability benefits just is not permitted without compensation to the former spouse. There has never been a case, apparently, in which a court has ordered a bond to secure payment of a spousal share ordered not paid at eligibility, in accordance with NRS 125.155(2)(a). It is difficult to conceive how such an order might work, as such a bond would require a dollar sum certain to secure an unknown future performance to begin on an unknown future date.
