INTRODUCED BY   Senator Ashburn

                        FEBRUARY 17, 2010

   An act to amend Section 20896 of the Government Code, relating to
public employees' retirement.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1081, as introduced, Ashburn. Retirement: military service.
   Existing law prohibits a member of the Public Employees'
Retirement System who receives military retirement pay based on 20 or
more years of active duty in the armed forces from also receiving
service credit under the system for that military service. However,
that prohibition does not apply to credit toward military retirement
pay that is earned for active and nonactive reserve duty and that is
payable only upon attainment of a specified age.
   This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that
provision.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 20896 of the Government Code is amended to
read:
   20896.  A member who is receiving military retirement pay based on
20 or more years of active duty with the armed forces shall be
deemed to have received credit in a publicly supported retirement
system for all service performed with the armed forces. Credit toward
military retirement pay that is earned by a combination of active
duty and nonactive duty with a reserve component of the armed forces
 and   subject to   a cond  
ition  where the retirement pay is payable only upon the
attainment of a specified age shall not be deemed credit in a
publicly supported retirement system.
