In re Marriage of Tronsrue

Summary

The court held that federal law did not preempt enforcement of the parties’ voluntary marital settlement agreement requiring the husband to pay the wife a portion of veterans’ disability benefits after receiving them. Because the circuit court had jurisdiction over the dissolution and retained jurisdiction to enforce the final judgment, the agreement was not void, and the husband’s failure to comply supported contempt and an attorney-fee award. The court affirmed the appellate and circuit court judgments.
