Alaska Supreme Court
Kendre Jones v. Vieanna Jones
March 4, 2022505 P.3d 224
Summary
The court affirmed enforcement of a mediated property settlement requiring Kendre Jones to pay Vieanna Jones $1,200 monthly after his military retirement benefits were converted to disability benefits. It held that enforcing a negotiated promise to make payments was not an impermissible division of disability benefits, and that the indemnity provision unambiguously covered the circumstances that occurred. The court also rejected challenges based on law of the case, unconscionability, lack of notice, and laches. No separate opinions were filed.
