Wagner v. Wagner

*464SAYLOR, Justice, Concurring.

I join the majority’s disposition, but note my agreement with those courts which have concluded that Section 1408(c)(4), 10 U.S.C., although couched in terms of jurisdiction over the military member, operates as a limitation upon the subject matter jurisdiction of state courts over the pension of a military member. See, e.g., Steel v. United States, 813 F.2d 1545 (9th Cir.1987); Delrie v. Harris, 962 F.Supp. 931, 934 (W.D.La.1997); Sola v. Bidwell, 980 S.W.2d 60, 66 (Mo.App. 1998); In re Akins, 932 P.2d 863, 866 (Colo.App.1992). See generally Kristine D. Kuenzli,…
