Bill Summary
Retirement benefits, circuit clerks authorized to participate in supernumerary program and Employees' Retirement System based on separate years of service
AI Summary
This bill clarifies that circuit clerks in Alabama can participate in both a supernumerary program, which allows them to retire with benefits while still working part-time, and the Employees' Retirement System, the state's main retirement plan, but only if their years of service for each program are distinct and not overlapping. In simpler terms, a circuit clerk cannot use the same period of employment to qualify for benefits in both retirement systems simultaneously; they must have separate periods of service for each. This act will take effect on July 1, 2026.
