Case of Interest

The Court of Appeals decided King v. King yesterday located here.  The main issue in the case was the division of a retirement account.  The case does a good job discussing how certain retirements are divisible and some are not.  The trial court was ultimately affirmed in allowing Mr. King to retain his retirement account.  There are all kinds of strange issues with retirement account.  When one is involved in a case, it is extremely important to know if it is a federal plan, ERISA plan, or a state plan.  It can make all the difference in the world.
