UPHELD status graphic: Dugan v. Childers. 000023 Dugan v. Childers 01/12/2001 In a case involving conflicting claims to the survivor benefits of a deceased retired military officer, the trial court properly refused to impose a constructive trust on benefits being received by the widow because a former wife had not fulfilled the requirements of the governing federal act by registering her claim within one year. The action of the trial court is affirmed.
