Sue Akers Cook, Formerly Sue Akers Cameron, Petitioner v. Paul Archibald Cameron, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the lower courts and ordered the trial court to enforce the prior judgment awarding Sue Cook thirty‑five percent of Paul Cameron’s gross military retirement benefits beginning June 25, 1981. The Court also declined to activate the contingent forty‑five percent increase and denied attorney‑fees, while noting that the lower courts improperly relitigated issues already decided. Justice Wallace filed a partial concurrence and dissent.
