§ 26701 Retirement Benefit Protection

• •Your retirement money is protected from being taken by others, even if you owe them money.
• •No one can force you to give up your retirement benefits, except in very specific cases allowed by law.
• •You can't just give away or sell your retirement benefits unless the law says you can.

If you owe someone money and they take you to court, they can't take your retirement savings to pay the debt.

The law protects your retirement money so that even if you lose a court case, your retirement benefits stay safe.
