Description
We granted review in this cause in order to address an important question relating to the characterization of retirement benefits as community or separate property under a so-called "defined benefit retirement plan," which specifies payments in advance in accordance with a formula that comprises factors such as final compensation, age, length of service, and a per-service-year multiplier: Does a non-employee spouse who owns a community property interest in an employee spouse's retirement benefits under such a plan own a community property interest in the retirement benefits as enhanced? As we shall explain, we conclude that the answer is: Yes.
