RS 1134 - Prior service certificates; conclusiveness; modification and validity

A. Upon verification of the statements of service, the board of trustees shall issue prior service certificates certifying to each member the length of service rendered prior to the date of the establishment of the retirement system, with which he is credited on the basis of his statement of service. So long as membership continues, a prior service certificate shall be final and conclusive for retirement purposes as to such service. Provided, that any member may, within one year from the date of issuance or modification of such certificate, request the board of trustees to modify or correct his prior service certificate.

B. When membership ceases, such prior service certificate shall become void. Should the employee again become a member, he shall enter the system as an employee not entitled to prior service credit except as provided in R.S. 17:916*.

Redesignated from R.S. 17:902 by Acts 1991, No. 74, §3, eff. June 25, 1991.

*NOTE: REPEALED BY ACTS 1978, NO. 727, §11, EFF. JAN. 1, 1979.
