Alaska Supreme Court
Jason R. Glover, Appellant v. Beverly E. Ranney, Appellee
December 13, 20132013 Alas. LEXIS 166
Summary
The court affirmed most of the superior court's implementation of the parties' property settlement agreement concerning division of the husband's military pension. It held that no evidentiary hearing was required, that the time-rule formula and indemnification provision complied with applicable law, and that survivor benefits and their pro rata costs could be included. The court reversed and remanded because the superior court changed the stipulated months-of-marriage numerator without explanation and awarded a survivor benefit greater than the wife's living retirement benefit without explaining the effect on the settlement.
