Case Synopsis
NRS 286.510 provides that the eligibility depends on an employee spouse’s effective date of membership in Nevada Public Employees’ Retirement System (“PERS”), profession, number of years served, and age. The Court determined that the time does not depend on whether the employee spouse’s PERS account has fully matured. NRS 125.155 provides district courts with discretion to deny or reduce a non-employee spouse’s request for pension payments before the employee spouse’s retirement. Further, under NRS 125.150(3), a party can seek adjudication of an asset mistakenly omitted from the divorce decree within three years of discovering the mistake. The Court determined that the district court did not abuse its discretion and affirmed the ruling.
