Community Property valuationThe bottom line is that it is possible for a military member to provide for survivorship benefits for a spouse after retirement, almost automatically. This was its original purpose. The Supreme Court affirmed. The Court noted the district court could have found these expenditures to be of a community nature, since they either contributed to the housing and other living expenses of the husband or constituted contributions to a community asset. The Court further noted that there was nothing in the record suggested an absolute entitlement on the part of the wife to any portion of those funds. The Court additionally noted that it was well established that the decision whether to award attorneys’ fees to either party lies within the sound discretion of the district court. The Court held that "the district court’s decision, based on the fact that each of the parties held substantial separate property, was clearly a proper exercise of its discretion." Id. at 259. 65279;Chambers ex rel. Cochran v. Sanderson, 107 Nev. 846, 822 P.2d 657 (1991) The child, through a guardian ad litem, filed a complaint to compel support. The district court ordered the father to execute an IRS release for his income tax returns of the previous three years, and awarded $500 per month temporary support. The father refused to sign the IRS release, and the child filed an application for an order to show cause. After a hearing on the order to show cause, the district court reversed itself. The district court concluded that child support award could only be adjusted beyond the $500 per month maximum provided in NRS 125B.070(2) only on a showing that the needs of a particular child are not met by that amount. The district court then concluded that because the father's financial condition was not relevant to the child's needs, there was no reason to allow discovery. The Court then made the $500 per month child support award permanent. 2. Submission by the obligor to the jurisdiction of this State by consent, by entering a general appearance or filing a responsive document having the effect of waiving any contest to personal jurisdiction. P> In other words, the Court held that subject matter jurisdiction is dependent on the veracity of a party¡¯s claim that the parties were "holding out" as husband and wife, or "otherwise qualified as a familial unit." This language is nearly sure to cause much unnecessary litigation and confusion. The second category of problem paralegals involve attorneys who have virtually relinquished control of their offices to paralegal staff, who have arrogated tasks and responsibilities far beyond their proper limits. B> At least nothing happened in the 2007 resetting of the presumptive maximums that made matters worse for children receiving support. But the entire episode provides an opportunity to think through why we do things the way we do things. The benefit of any upward deviation to M and child, who have income of$6,OOO per month, would be insignificant compared to the benefit to F and child, who have income of $2,000 per month. Thus, no deviation would be granted and support would be set at $500 per month. The word "acquired" embraces wages, salaries, earnings, or other property acquired through the toil or talent or other productive faculty of either spouse. The parents were subject to a joint physical custody order. The referee found that the best interests of the children would be served by vesting the mother with primary custody. The referee agreed with the testimony and recommendations of the CASA; the joint custody order was working to the detriment of the children, and there was evidence that the son was being mistreated while at the father’s home. The district court adopted the referee’s findings. The father appealed, claiming the referee applied the wrong legal standard when considering a modification of joint custody. II) the amount of disposable retired pay which remains available for payment of any confiding court order based on when such court order was effectively served and the Imitations of paragraph (1 )and subparagraph (b) of paragraph (4); and In marked contrast to the multiple line-drawing and subtle distinctions discussed above regarding the death of a member, the death of a spouse has a very simple effect - the member is freed from all relevant restrictions, claims, and costs. Since this Court, by virtue of the Order of November 18, 2008, has invited PERS’ participation in the resolution of this appeal, the Court should take advantage of this opportunity to resolve PERS’ refusal to obey the Court’s mandate in Wolff, as the problem is recurrent, and apparently has evaded review for 12 years. The district court found that at the time of marriage, the wife did not have any property. The husband had substantial property. The Supreme Court held that all property acquired during marriage is community property and property acquired prior to marriage is separate property. As a matter of law, it is possible to value the spousal share in at least two ways. The majority of States applying the time rule formula seem to view the "community" years of effort qualitatively rather than quantitatively, reasoning that the early and later years of total service are equally necessary to the retirement benefits ultimately received." Second, by way of Concurrent Receipt (also called "Concurrent Disability Pay," or "CDP," but later re-titled "Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay" or "CRDP"),3 all retirees with 20 years of service and VA disability ratings of 50% or higher, had their retired pay offsets phased out over a ten year period. In other words, the military retired pay previously waived for disability pay would be slowly restored, until the retirees were receiving both their full retired pay and the VA disability payments. Because the restored money is the fully-divisible longevity retired pay that was waived for VA benefits in the first place, it is "retired pay." ere also appears to be the right to enter into pre- and post-partnership agreements, just the same as a couple contemplating marriage are allowed to do by way of a premarital agreement governed by NRS Chapter 123A. The Supreme Court reversed. The Court restated the holding of Murphy v. Murphy, 84 Nev. 710, 711, 447 P.2d 664, 665 (1968) and noted that the district court had wide discretion in child custody cases citing to Cosner v. Cosner, 78 Nev. 242, 371 P.2d 278(1962); Timney v. Timney, 76 Nev. 230, 351 P.2d 611 (1960) and Black v. Black, 48 Nev.220, 228 P. 889 (1924). The Court held that discretion had to be applied within the Murphy standard. The Court found that the district court made no finding that the child’s welfare would be substantially enhanced by the change. The Court, in reviewing the record, found no evidence which would support such a finding. Second, the voters would still have no ability to elect a candidate for that department, as no names for that department would be on the ballot, immediately vacating the seat as soon as it is filled. Initially, to address the definition of joint physical custody, we define legal custody, including sole legal custody and joint legal custody. We then define physical custody, including joint physical custody and primary physical custody. In defining joint physical custody, we adopt a definition that focuses on minor children having frequent associations and a continuing relationship with both parents and parents sharing the rights and responsibilities of child rearing. Consistent with the recommendation of the Family Law Section, this joint physical custody definition requires that each party have physical custody of the child at least 40 percent of the time. We then address the district court's rulings. Before 1978, reservists could not elect participation in their SBP program until they were eligible to draw retired pay (that is, at age sixty). That year, legislation granted them the power to elect participation upon notification of eligibility for retirement, which generally is before they reach age sixty.2 The bottom line is that it is possible for a military member to provide for survivorship benefits for a spouse after retirement, almost automatically. This was its original purpose. The rationales are the doctrines of comity and abstention,3 and the Nevada Supreme Court’s repeated admonitions against bifurcating divorce actions.4 Where actions are pending in courts of different states, whether to stay or dismiss one action or the other should be raised by motion.5 A ruling on whether to stay or dismiss must take into consideration matters outside the pleadings, such as the seriousness of the threat of multiple and vexatious litigation, the convenience of the parties, the status of the foreign actions, and the competing interests of the two forums.6 Considerations of The Court affirmed the district court's refusal to enter judgment finding the district court did not abuse its discretion. The Court also held that under NRS 125.170 a district court has discretionary power at any time to modify or vacate alimony provisions of its decree except as to accrued installments. The husband and wife met sometime in October of 1956, and during the first part of 1957 seriously considered marriage. In May 1957, at the offices of husband’s attorney located in Columbus, Ohio, the husband and wife executed a prenuptial agreement. At the time, the husband was living in Washington Court House, Ohio, and the wife was living in Columbus, Ohio. The Supreme Court held that the validity of a prenuptial agreement is construed in accordance with the law of the state in which it was entered, citing to Jones v. Jones, 86 Nev. 879, 478 P.2d 148 (1970), and Davis v. Jouganatos, 81 Nev. 333, 402 P.2d 985 (1965). 5. This order does not require the retirement system to make payments to an Alternate Payee prior to the retirement of a Member or the distribution to or withdrawal of contributions by a Member, unless the statutes or rules governing PERS allow such a distribution. In 2006, Congress altered the longevity rules.9 As of April 1, 2007, the military retired pay of retirees with more than 30 years of service is not limited to 75% of basic pay. Rather, new basic pay tables (to 40 years) are applicable for retirements on and after that date. Additionally, various enlisted and officer ranks had their basic pay increased for service longevity from a maximum of over 28 years to a maximum of over 36 years; in other words, monthly pay that used to "top out" at a certain point continued increasing with continued service. The parties were married in Michigan in 1944. In June 1957, the husband filed for divorce in Michigan. The wife appeared and filed for separate maintenance and then for divorce. The husband abandoned the Michigan case. The husband moved to Nevada and obtained a Nevada default decree. The decree contained no provision for alimony. Then, in February 1960, the Michigan court awarded the wife a divorce, alimony and $5,000 in lieu of dower. Once the wife learned the ex-husband was in Arizona, she sued him there for the accrued amount due under the Michigan judgment. The husband appeared and was represented. The Arizona court entered a judgment for $7,500 in December 1960. The wife then filed in Nevada seeking to recover the amount due upon the Arizona judgment. The district court refused to give the foreign judgment full faith and credit. The district court concluded that the earlier Nevada decree invalidated the later Michigan decree which also invalidated the Arizona judgment. The Supreme Court reversed. The Court commented that the case was only a suit upon a foreign judgment for money and that it was impermissible to look behind the judgment. The husband never challenged the jurisdiction of the Arizona court to render the money judgment, nor did he suggest that it had been procured by fraud, or that it had been satisfied in whole or in part. The Court held that the judgment was a final judgment for full faith and credit purposes. The Court further held that a valid ex parte divorce entered at the domicile of only one party to the marriage did not automatically end the wife’s right to support. Applying the law to the facts, the Court concluded that the husband would have the burden of showing that the estate was acquired by gift, devise or bequest or that the property was acquired with his separate property or credit citing to NRS 123.130 and NRS 123.220, and Kelly v. Kelly, 86 Nev. 301, 468 P.2d 359 (1970). The Court found that there was no evidence that the life estate was acquired by gift, or that if it was acquired through the husband’s separate property or credit. The Court concluded that the property could not be transmuted from a "trust" for the children to community property at the demand of the grantor. The estate was a valuable estate in land. The estate had to be valued and divided. 3) In cases without a past determination or other credible evidence, presume the approximate number of overnights granted in the terms of the current custody or parenting time order. When the divorce occurs near the fifteen-year mark of the military career, there is a new danger for spouses of military members who started service after July 31, 1986. There is no provision for spousal consent, or even notification, before a member can take the $30,000 CSB/REDUX payment, which irrevocably reduces the lifetime "regular" retirement benefits payout. Especially where the parties have already separated, it is possible that the member could simply pocket the cash payment and the spouse would never even know of the devaluation of the retirement benefits being divided in the divorce.
