Grants Barbara Juh Tier 5 status in the New York state and local employees' retirement system

This bill grants Barbara Juh, a retiree from the New York state and local employees' retirement system, retroactive Tier 5 status. This change, effective from September 16, 2010, upgrades her previous Tier 6 status due to an enrollment error not caused by her own negligence. To receive this benefit, Ms. Juh must file a written request within six months of the bill becoming law. The State of New York will cover any associated past service costs, and she will not receive a refund for her previous employee contributions.
