military allotments repayable?

Walter Herbert Foster IV

While I would need to know a little bit more about the specific facts of your case and the basis for the anullment, my initial reaction is that the Government would not seek repayment of the allotments as long as both parties did not entire the marriage fraudulently. If the marriage was deficient, but only unilaterly, I doubt the Government would seek recompense.

No. Allotments are done either by the consent of the military person from whose pay the allotment is taken or by regulation or by order of a civilian court. In other words, the allotment recipient is a passive participant in the process, and I cannot conceive of a case in which an allotment recipient would be required to return funds, unless an error was made and she was overpaid.
