While the type of pension and specific language of the Plan Documents would generally be controlling, the answer to your question is generally one day, though the amount of that participation in the marital portion of your pension would generally be negligible. Consult with an attorney to discuss the specifics of your situation and your options.

One day, but the percentage is decided by the Judge.

Each pension is different. Use of a lawyer is recommended.

That depends upon how much was put into the pension fund during the marriage. The spouse is entitled to one half of the amount contributed to it during the marriage.
