Syllabus

R.C. 3105.171(I) does not contain any explicit language divesting domestic-relations courts of subject-matter jurisdiction over divorce actions and the division of marital property—Any error in a domestic-relations court's exercise of its jurisdiction in issuing an order that divides retirement benefits in a way that modifies a divorce decree in violation of R.C. 3105.171(I) renders the resulting order voidable, not void.
