Title: Payments Pursuant to Court Decree or Court-Approved Property Settlement 
Abstract:

The Railroad Retirement Board (Board) proposes to amend its regulations addressing who may receive a portion of an employee annuity due to a former spouse of a railroad annuitant under a court decree of divorce or court-approved property settlement, but which was unpaid at the time of the former spouse's death. The current regulation states that the Board will follow the priority order provided for employee annuities unpaid at death in section 234.1 of the Board's regulations. The proper section pertaining to employee annuities due but unpaid at death is located in section 234.31 of the Board's regulations. This amendment is necessary to insert the correct section reference.
