HCS/SCS/SBs 202, 33, 45, 183, & 217 - Under the provisions of this act, any administrative law judge or legal advisor who is originally employed as such on or after the effective date of the act will no longer be eligible to participate in the Administrative Law Judge and Legal Advisor's Retirement System. Instead, such persons will be covered under the state employees' retirement system. However, no administrative law judge or legal advisor who is employed before the effective date of the act, or who has retired before that date, will be affected by this act. The liabilities and assets of the Administrative Law Judge's and Legal Advisor's retirement system are transferred and combined with the state employees' retirement system. The provisions of this act will apply to the following persons: administrative law judges, employees of administrative law judges, members of the Administrative Hearing Commission, legal advisors, members of the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission, and the chairperson of the State Board of Mediation. This act contains an emergency clause. This act is similar to the introduced SB 248 (2003). DONALD THALHUBER
