v.
Frank Edward HOLBERT.
No. 98-C-0012.
Supreme Court of Louisiana.
May 29, 1998.
James Howard Mixon, Bunkie, for Applicant.
James L. Brazee, Jr., Lafayette, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM.[*]
We granted certiorari in this case to consider the issue of whether 10 U.S.C. § 1408(c)(1) precludes a former wife, divorced in 1974, from seeking a partition of her former husband's military retirement benefits. We conclude that it does, and therefore reverse the judgment of the court of appeal and reinstate the judgment of the district court.
