Supreme Court rules against women in military retirement case
The court, by 6-3, barred ex wives from sharing ex husbands military retirement pay, deferring to Congress on military matters. The decision overturned a California ruling granting Patricia McCarty about half of her former husbands retirement pay amid divorce. The ruling, issued after a separate ruling on women in the draft, limits damages and jury rights in other civil rights and age discrimination cases. Justice Blackmun stated the court defers to Congress on armed forces affairs.
