Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on April 19, 2024. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill modifies the contribution rates for the judicial retirement fund. The bill redefines the term “judge’s required contribution” to mean an amount equal to the basic salary of the judge multiplied by 9.35 percent beginning in FY 2024-2025, and the term “state’s required contribution” to mean an amount equal to the basic salary of all judges multiplied by 30.6 percent beginning in FY 2024-2025. The bill’s contribution rates apply regardless of whether the judicial retirement fund is fully funded. The bill amends the actuarial valuation procedure by the court administrator to strike associated provisions.
