County employees' retirement: disability: date of retirement.

The County Employees Retirement Law of 1937 provides a comprehensive set of benefits for county and district employees who are members of a retirement system subject to that law and establishes county retirement boards for the administration of benefits authorized under that law. That law authorizes a county retirement system in Los Angeles County to adjust retirement payments due to errors or omissions, as specified. That law also permits a member permanently incapacitated for duty to retire for disability only if specified criteria are met and requires the board to determine the effective date of retirement in those cases, as specified. This bill would authorize a county retirement system in Los Angeles County to correct a prior board decision determining the effective date of retirement for a member permanently incapacitated for disability that was made between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2015, and was based upon an error of law existing at the time of the decision, as specified. The bill would authorize a member seeking correction under these provisions to file an application with the board no later than one year from the date these provisions become operative.
