4th District, April 15, 1999



In Re: the Marriage of JUDITH E. WALKER,

Petitioner-Appellant,

and

JAMES E. WALKER,

Respondent-Appellee.

Appeal from Circuit Court of Logan County

No. 96D197

Honorable Gerald G. Dehner, Judge Presiding.

JUSTICE McCULLOUGH delivered the opinion of the court:

Judith and James Walker were married on May 7, 1994. No children were born of the marriage. The marriage was dissolved on March 19, 1997. On appeal, Judith and James dispute the trial court's disposition of James' thrift incentive plan under section 503 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act (Act) (750 ILCS 5/503 (West 1996)). The trial court awarded Judith $17,643 as her share of the marital interest in the plan. The trial court ordered this amount to be paid to Judith under a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO), effective the date of dissolution. We affirm.

On January 12, 1998, the trial court held a hearing on property distribution issues. On August 5, 1998, the trial court entered the supplemental property distribution order. The trial court split the nonpension marital property fairly equally. The trial court awarded Judith her pension. Judith earns $13,036 per year working full-time as a high school secretary and part-time in a restaurant. Judith has worked at the high school for 25
