Bill Summary

This bill allows a county prosecutor, nominated and appointed pursuant to the State Constitution, to receive credit in the Prosecutors Part of the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) for service as a judicial law clerk in a State Court if the county prosecutor purchases credit for that service after being appointed to serve as a county prosecutor. Under current law, such a purchase after appointment is not recognized as service credit in the Prosecutors Part.

AI Summary

This bill allows county prosecutors, who are nominated and appointed pursuant to the New Jersey Constitution, to receive credit in the Prosecutors Part of the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) for their previous service as a judicial law clerk in a New Jersey state court. Under current law, such prior judicial clerk service is not recognized for service credit in the Prosecutors Part of PERS, but this bill changes that to allow prosecutors to purchase credit for their prior judicial clerk service after being appointed as a county prosecutor.
