Moran v. Moran

In Moran v. Moran (289 AD2d 544), the former wife moved for a QDRO providing her with survivorship interest in the former husband's pension. The trial court issued a revised QDRO requiring the former husband to provide the former wife with survivorship interest in his pension and the husband appealed. The Appellate Division held that the former wife was not entitled to a QDRO requiring the former husband to provide her with survivorship interest in his pension. The stipulation of settlement and the judgment of divorce only stated that the parties would share equally in the plaintiff's pension pursuant to the Majauskas formula. The documents were silent on survivorship interest.
