The following amounts are exempt from liability for debts of the person to or on account of whom the amounts are paid, and are not subject to seizure upon execution or other process:
1. All pensions or annuities or retirement, disability, death, or other benefits paid or
payable by, or amounts received as a return of contributions and interest from, a
retirement system established pursuant to state law by the state except as provided by
sections 15-39.1-12.2, 39-03.1-14.2, 54-52-17.6, and 54-52.2-03.3, a state agency, a
political subdivision of the state, or a firefighters relief association for retirement,
annuity, pension, disability benefit, or death benefit purposes. The exemption in this
subsection does not apply to the collection of child support unless federal law requires
an exemption or if complying with an execution or other process would require an
actuarial analysis to determine the current value of the amounts that are payable to the
debtor.
2. All awards made pursuant to chapter 54-23.4 as compensation for victims of crimes.
3. All payments of assistance as aid to dependent children pursuant to chapter 50-09.
