Is a binding, guaranteed contract "severance pay"?

By a narrow split decision and the dissent was more compelling than the confirmation. If your wife divorces you for Mr. abs then 3 years from now you lose your job and receive severance pay do you really want your wife coming around for a handout pretending the severance pay is part of retirement benefits? I think not.
Horseshoes and hand grenades. It's pretty obvious that you haven't read the ruling, but please continue to astound us with what you think it means.

Maybe shady, maybe not.
I don't think asking to have the date changed should have had any impact on the court's decision, though.
The way part of the majority opinion read is that O was head of household and signed contract with the buyout as a safety net.
So is the precedent now set that if a man takes one job over another because one has a better severance package potential, should it ever come to that, that his wife at time of taking said job is now entitled to that severance in perpetuity?

Is that severance specifically a guaranteed contract? Or a company policy?
It sounds like your inclusion of "potential" denotes the latter.

Yes if vested into a contract with employer.
Keep looking after those gold diggers bro

I'm going to say that the odds of you interpreting something correctly are pretty low.
Not a lawyer and if you are than more than likely you can interpret it better…
So explain this statement from the opinion

That “income” is also certainly the pay or wages of the coach for the work he performs and would be separate property after the termination of the community.
It appears they ruled in the exact opposite of their own statement… O was fired after the termination of “community” wasn’t he???… so how is his buyout not separate property??

Then it's a contract and not "severance pay".

I have many issues with the LA law on community property. But it should be properly applied for everyone.

Where did you bring up such case law?

Was the buyout part of a contract that was community property?
This attempt to separate the buyout from the contract is the illogical part.
The "buyout" doesn't create a new obligation or a new contract.
Remove the buyout part. If he had just finished out that contract, and the contract was formed prior to the termination of the community regime, per community property laws, why wouldn't she be entitled to 50%?

What’s the point you trying to make???… what would be difference in the situation we discussing?? Wouldn’t matter O’s buyout wasn’t guaranteed… he could have been fired for cause or simply quit at which point it’s no buyout

Yes it was.

But he wasn't and he didn't. He was terminated without cause, in which case the liquidated damages were guaranteed.

So a contract with a term of service for 20 years would still entitled a ex spouse to half of a buyout 15 years into a contract?? Even if you’ve been divorced 14 years

I brought up a case mentioned in the dissent that included case law which should've helped O's case. I hope this helps.

Think of it this way.
If you win the Powerball and elect the monthly payments. Those are community property.
An agreement at a later date, post-divorce, to negotiate a lump sum to accelerate a % of the payments, doesn't change the nature of that contract.

yea it does and im sure the change in date is coming from the lawyer
your hatred of him is skewing your view big time
you can hate all the shite that transpired 2020 and 2021, i do
but these are the facts
1) the coaching staff in 2019 was put together by him and he had 100% carte blanche in doing so
2) the players on that 2019 team were all his players he recruited
so yea he deserves credit
just like he deserves the blame for how he handles BLM, Covid, his hires after 2019, his personal life that was made public after 2019, the bullshite hires in 2021, how he handled NIL and the transfer portal etc.
you cant give blame and then also not give credit. Come on now, be rational.

Cristobal is similar to O, but is much more consistent in his success.
Yes, he hasn't had the stars align for a 2019, but that just goes to show you how much of an outlier that is for O. It's not an argument FOR O.
Outliers happen. I understand people melting when I explained it was an outlier event in 2020. I have no idea how people don't recognize it as so in 2025 with all the hindsight bias.
cristobal is a much much better coach than O was.
and yea 2019 was absolutely an outlier for O. but he did finish top 10 year before and did have a slow steady build to 2019 but certainly it was an outlier.
and he deserves all the hate towards him about 2020 and 2021. handled terribly. but he also deserves credit for his successes too.

You cannot care less. A woman can be the cheater and the reason for divorce and you will support her as she seeks checks years down the road because "fairness".
