LAC 58:I.4131. Domestic Relations Orders

A. In all instances wherein a person participating in the SDP is a party to a Domestic Relations Order ("DRO"), properly worded and approved by LASERS, and such DRO is to divide DROP funds with the participant's former spouse, LASERS shall establish a means whereby the former spouse may choose the investment options for his or her portion of the SDP. Until such time as the portion belonging to the former spouse is placed in a separate SDP account in that person's name, those funds shall remain in a conservative fixed income investment vehicle within the SDP such as a stable value fund. B. The selection of investment options shall be in accordance with §4125 of this Chapter. C. Withdrawals from the SDP by either the member spouse (under whom all service credit accumulated) or the former spouse are prohibited until such time as the member spouse terminates state employment.
