Fierce compassion, equanimity, integrity #2

I will write in more detail later but do you mean he will get 62K per year from retirement til death, and you would be entitled to 31K per year of that?

Do you know about this --

The Majauskas Formula = 50 percent × years of service credit accrued during the marriage ÷ total service credit at time of retirement.

For example, if the Participant/Alien/Artist-Formerly-Known-as-the-Guy-You-Married accrued 15 years of service credit while married, and retires with 30 years total service credit, the ex-spouse’s/Gorgeous-Kind-Brilliant-Cardinal's share will be 25 percent of the pension. (50% × 15/30 = 25%).

The Retirement System does not require the Majauskas formula to be used. The Court may arrive at a different computation. The Retirement System will follow the Court’s directive in computing your ex-spouse’s share.

According to that, you'd be entitled to 50% x 10/34? That would only be 9K a year unless I am not understanding the formula. Maybe KML knows, or someone else on here? He may not realize that he doesn't have to give you the full half, and that's why he's fighting. Also only 9K a year ain't that much, and you could use this to leverage something else in trade.

Do you own a house or any other assets? If you don't want to give numbers, I can make a formula.

Also -- for now, he is a narcissist/sociopath/etc. Again, use my story to guide you, I am not saying he always was or that he won't wake up and be who he seemed to be before. But for right now, under the Reign of MLC, he is Cluster C Central. Read all those books and adjust accordingly. If he snaps out of it, you'll know, and you can shift yourself accordingly.
