Some bill research does not include the Governor's file because at the time we researched the bill, the sitting Governor had not released his chaptered bill file. If the Governor's file is not included with this particular research, please contact our office (1-530-666-1917 or quote@legintent.com) and we will be happy to provide this file at no charge if it is available. Please Note: Governor files did not exist prior to 1943.

A digest of Assembly Bill 810 as last amended on April 4, 1994 was provided in the Concurrence in Senate Amendments Analysis as prepared by the Assembly Office of Research:
Existing law prescribes various retirement formulas for various categories of membership.
As passed by the Assembly, this bill established a legislative finding that it is in the best interest of the state to establish a 2% at age 58 service retirement formula for state miscellaneous members.
The Senate amendments delete the Assembly version of the bill and instead:
Limit the receipt of temporary disability benefits to state employees during the first 52 weeks of disability when the employee is eligible for industrial disability leave (IDL).
Allow employees to supplement the basic IDL benefit with accrued leave credits (e.g., vacation, sick leave).
