On July 2, 1980, the District Court of El Paso County, Colorado (the divorce court), entered a decree dissolving the marriage between petitioner and Mr. Jefferies. The divorce decree incorporates by reference the provisions of the separation agreement. In 1992, Mr. Jefferies retired from the military. Petitioner mailed an Application For Former Spouse Payments From Retired Pay, DD Form 2293, FEB 91, to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) in Denver, Colorado. In the application, she requested direct payment from DFAS of 50 percent of disposable retired pay per month based on 20 years of service at the rank of lieutenant colonel and attached a copy of the divorce decree as per the instructions on the application. Starting in January of 1993 and continuing for all relevant periods, petitioner received directly from DFAS monthly payments of $1,080.23 (the military retirement payments). The parties have stipulated that during 2000 petitioner’s military retirement payments totaled (ostensibly after rounding) $12,962.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Next
