In Utah, a spouse (man or woman) usually retains his/her marital interest in that portion of his/her spouse's pension and other retirement benefits accrued or acquired during the marriage. Other aspects of pension and other retirement benefits rights are modified or lost in the course of divorce, but usually a spouse will retain and be awarded (in one form or another) 50% of his/her spouse's pension and other retirement benefits in divorce.
