Statute text

(a)For purposes of this section, “disallowed compensation” means compensation reported for a member by the state, school employer, or a contracting agency that the system subsequently determines is not in compliance with the California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (Article 4 (commencing with Section 7522) of Chapter 21 of Division 7 of Title 1), Section 20636 or 20636.1, or the administrative regulations of the system.

(b)If the system determines that the compensation reported for a member by the state, school employer, or a contracting agency is disallowed compensation, the system shall require the state, school employer, or contracting agency to discontinue reporting the disallowed compensation. This section shall also apply to determinations made on or after January 1, 2017, if an appeal has been filed and the member, the retired member, survivor, or beneficiary has not exhausted their administrative or legal remedies.

(1)In the case of an active member, all contributions made on the disallowed compensation shall be credited against future contributions to the benefit of the state, school employer, or contracting agency that reported the disallowed compensation, and any contribution paid by, or on behalf of, the member, including contributions under Section 20691, shall be returned to the member by the state, school employer, or contracting agency that reported the disallowed compensation.
