Sec. 120.212. - Distribution of marital interests in the plan.

(a) In the event that the Board is served with a domestic relations order or other legal process purporting to require the payment of any portion of a member's benefit to another person as a result of dissolution of marriage, the Board shall cause such order to be reviewed to determine compliance with the provisions of the System. As federal law on qualified domestic relations orders does not apply to the Plan, the Plan shall not be required to honor such orders. The Plan shall only be required to honor income deduction orders as provided by Florida law. In the event that the Florida Legislature adopts laws in conflict with this Section, the State law shall control. (Ord. 2005-432-E, § 2)
