Questão jurídica principal
Whether the pension foundation had to pay the wife her share of the vested benefits despite already paying the ex-husband.
Decisão extraída
No. The foundation was not liable; the wife’s claim must be directed against the former husband, not the foundation, in this situation.
Fundamentação extraída
The post-divorce withdrawal did not violate the consent rules for married insured persons, and the foundation had no general duty to investigate whether a foreign divorce judgment had already been implemented. The withdrawal affected at most the enforcement substrate, not the substantive entitlement calculated as of the divorce judgment becoming final.
