Prior service performed by a member as a judge or solicitor of a court of record shall be creditable year for year, not to exceed five years for each type of service, notwithstanding that such service may have been for longer periods.
(Ga. L. 1952, p. 175, § 3.)
OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
Prior service creditable under general retirement system.
- If a superior court judge becoming an appellate court judge elects coverage under the general retirement system program, rather than Ga. L. 1971, p. 99, § 1 (see O.C.G.A. § 47-2-244), Ga. L. 1952, p. 175, § 3 (see O.C.G.A. § 47-2-291) would allow service performed as a judge or solicitor of a court of record to be creditable as prior service year for year, not to exceed five years for each type of service. 1976 Op. Att'y Gen. No. U76-9.
