A 7083 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Authorizes Carl Spatola to receive a refund from the New York state teachers' retirement system

This bill authorizes a one-time refund for Carl Spatola from the New York State Teachers' Retirement System. It corrects an overpayment he made during a specific period (October 2000-June 2004) when his transfer from the New York City Teachers' Retirement System wasn't properly processed. The refund covers his accumulated 3% contributions for that unprocessed transfer period, provided he applies within one year of the bill's effective date. This is a specific, individual case and does not change general retirement system rules.
