Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
I was legally married 5 years then divorced from John. He then lived/never married Jane for 10 years and they had 2 kids. They split up and we have been together/not married for 10 years. Can Jane collect on John's pension? Legally what needs to be do be where she cannot collect? We want it to be set up where I am beneficiary of everything...please guide me as what we need to do. Thanks. We live in Texas.

John needs to talk to the administrator of his pension plan; he should call his HR department.
Jane has no rights to any part of John's pension.
