Sec. 2809.
(1) Section 2807 does not obligate an individual who purchases property from a former spouse, a relative of a former spouse, or another person for value and without notice, or who receives from a former spouse, a relative of a former spouse, or another person a payment or other item of property in partial or full satisfaction of a legally enforceable obligation, to return the payment, item of property, or benefit, and such a person is not liable under section 2807 for the amount of the payment or the value of the item of property or benefit. However, a former spouse, relative of a former spouse, or other person who, not for value, received a payment, item of property, or another benefit to which that person is not entitled under section 2807 is obligated to return the payment, item of property, or benefit, or is personally liable for the amount of the payment or the value of the item of property or benefit, to the person who is entitled to it under section 2807.
(2) If this section and sections 2807 and 2808 are, or a part of 1 of those sections is, preempted by federal law with respect to a payment, an item of property, or another benefit covered by these sections, a former spouse, relative of the former spouse, or another person who, not for value, receives a payment, an item of property, or another benefit to which that person is not entitled under these sections is obligated to return the payment, item of property, or benefit, or is personally liable for the amount of the payment or the value of the item of property or benefit, to the person who would have been entitled to it if these sections or a part of 1 of these sections were not preempted.
