Information on the Woodrow Act

I am looking for information regarding the law on 401K / retirement funds dispensed during a divorce. I believe it is part of the "Woodrow Act" and I would like to know where I can find information to read on this subject.

Re: Information on the Woodrow Act

Your question is rather vague, you did not indicate whether you are concerned about tax consequences, whether a 401(k) is marital property; or how a 401(k) is divided; or how the employer and IRS are notified; or any number of other questions. In general go to your local law library, most counties have a public law library, also the U of U and BYU have excellent law libraries.

You may want to email a more specific question.
