A Virginia judge had no authority to disregard the remarriage cutoff provisions of federal statutory law and rule that a wife's share of her husband's Foreign Service pension benefits would not be terminated even if she remarried before age 55. Under 22 USC §4071j(a)(3) it does cut off. The judge apparently thought that it did not because the husband's benefits would have begun to pay out before wife reached age 55. The Court of Appeals finds that neither the parties' agreement nor the divorce decree expressly waived these federal law provisions. To construe a waiver would have been to add a substantive provision to the parties' agreement that they never agreed upon. Jarvinen v. Votaw, 13 VLW 1271, unpublished (3/9/99).
