Marschner v. Marschner

- 2026 ND 66
Syllabus
Under the Uniformed Services Former Spouses' Protection Act 10, U.S.C. § 1408, as interpreted in Howell v. Howell, 581 U.S. 214 (2017), an indemnification provision requiring a veteran to compensate a former spouse for retirement pay waived in favor of disability benefits is void and unenforceable, regardless of whether the parties agreed to it. A district court's award of spousal support calculated to restore a former spouse's lost share of waived retirement pay is merely a semantic reframing of the prohibited division of disability pay and is preempted by federal law.
Judges: Tufte, Jerod E.
