(Super. Ct. Nos. S-1500-FL-564450 & S-1501-PB-61004) ORDER MODIFYING OPINION AND DENYING PETITION FOR REHEARING
[NO CHANGE IN JUDGMENT]
Pursuant to the request filed by appellant James Steed on October 15, 2014, and for good cause shown, this court's opinion filed on September 30, 2014, in the above-entitled matter is hereby modified as follows:
The last full paragraph on page 18, just prior to the disposition (beginning "James has not shown that ...."), is deleted and replaced with the following:
The trial court reserved jurisdiction to make orders necessary to carry out the judgment. It thereby retained the authority to enter its own order designating the beneficiaries, to implement the judgment, and give effect to the clear intentions of the decedent. The trial court entered a DRO that named Sharron's three children as the beneficiaries. This order carried out Sharron's intent by designating the same beneficiaries she had repeatedly attempted to designate during her lifetime. James has not demonstrated the trial court would have entered a different order, more favorable to him, if Candice had not been involved in designating the beneficiaries. Accordingly, he has not established prejudicial error.
In light of this modification, appellant's petition for rehearing is denied. This modification does not effect a change in the judgment.
