Marriage of Davis CA2/1
Appellant Robert Davis challenges the trial court’s post trial order requiring him to pay $49,426.08 in California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) benefits to his ex-wife, respondent Nam Lee Davis. The couple separated in 2009, and CalPERS calculated in 2015 that Nam Lee was entitled to $716.32 per month as her share of Robert’s benefits. CalPERS did not pay Nam Lee retroactively for any benefits to which she was entitled for the period from 2009 to 2015. Nam Lee requested that the court order Robert to pay Nam Lee her share of these retroactive benefits. Robert contends that the trial court abused its discretion by issuing the order prematurely, without allowing CalPERS to calculate the amount owed for that time period. We disagree and affirm the trial court. Robert has failed to show that CalPERS’s prior calculation of Nam Lee’s benefits was insufficient to support the court’s order.
