Widows Sue Over Survivor Benefit Plan
Week of February 25, 2008
A U.S. Court of Federal Claims judge has given a green light to three military widows to sue the government for a combined $105,000 -- the accumulated value of Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) payments that, the widows contend, have been unlawfully withheld since Dec. 16, 2003. If they win their case, hundreds of surviving spouses in the same category could be in line for hefty SBP repayments too. For more information, read the full article at Military.com.
