Purpose and legislative effect

“This section says the code is called the Education Code.”

This chapter is named the Public Education Facilities Bond Act of 1996 and may be cited by that name. This section lets California education entities and teacher-training institutions make agreements or contracts to exchange or assign personnel, with assignments limited to one year. A specified $2,012,035,000 of bond proceeds must be deposited into the State School Building Lease-Purchase Fund. Money in the State School Building Lease-Purchase Fund must be used to provide aid and reimburse specified education and bond-expense funds. An agreement under Section 10000 must allow certain California State University and district teaching employees to take on each other’s duties.

## Education Code - EDC ## TITLE 1 GENERAL EDUCATION CODE PROVISIONS [1. - 32527] ( Title 1 enacted by Stats. 1976, Ch. 1010. ) ## DIVISION 1 GENERAL EDUCATION CODE PROVISIONS [1. - 32527] ( Division 1 enacted by Stats. 1976, Ch. 1010. ) ## PART 13. STATE TEACHERS' RETIREMENT SYSTEM [22000 - 25115] ( Part 13 repealed and added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 893, Sec. 2. ) ## CHAPTER 22. Active Death Benefits: Family Allowance [23800 - 23812] ( Chapter 22 added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 893, Sec. 2. ) ## 23805. A family allowance is payable in the amount and to the specified persons in the following order of priority: (a) To the deceased member’s surviving spouse who has financial responsibility for at least one dependent child, an amount equal to 40 percent of the member’s final compensation or the disabled member’s projected final compensation plus 10 percent of the member’s final compensation or the disabled member’s projected final compensation for each child, up to a maximum allowance of 90 percent. (b) If there is no surviving spouse or upon the death of the surviving spouse, to each dependent child, an amount equal to 10 percent of the deceased member’s final compensation or the disabled member’s projected final compensation, up to a maximum allowance of 50 percent. If there are more than five dependent children, they shall share equally in the maximum allowance of 50 percent. (c) To the surviving spouse at 60 years of age or over if there is no dependent child, a monthly allowance equal to the amount that would have been payable to the spouse as beneficiary under Option 3 pursuant to Section 24300, as that section read on December 31, 2006, that provides an allowance equal to one-half of the modified retirement allowance the member would have received at 60 years of age, computed on the member’s projected final compensation and projected service to normal retirement age. The allowance payable under this subdivision shall be increased by application of the benefit improvement factor for time that elapses between the date the member would have attained normal retirement age and the date the family allowance under this subdivision begins to accrue. The allowance calculation shall include service credit for the unused sick leave that had accrued to the member as of the date of his or her death. Eligibility for the inclusion of service credit for unused sick leave credit and the calculation of that service credit shall be determined pursuant to Section 22717. (d) If there is no surviving spouse or dependent child, to the dependent parent, 60 years of age or over, a monthly allowance equal to the amount that would have been payable to the dependent parent as beneficiary under Option 3 pursuant to Section 24300, as that section read on December 31, 2006, that provides an allowance equal to one-half of the modified retirement allowance the member would have received at 60 years of age, computed on the member’s projected final compensation and projected service to normal retirement age. The allowance calculation shall include service credit for the unused sick leave that had accrued to the member as of the date of his or her death. Eligibility for the inclusion of service credit for unused sick leave and the calculation of that service credit shall be determined pursuant to Section 22717. If there are two dependent parents, only one family allowance shall be payable under this subdivision and that allowance shall be computed on the assumption that the younger parent is the option beneficiary and the allowance shall be divided equally for as long as there are two dependent parents. Thereafter, the full allowance shall be payable to the surviving dependent parent. (e) The surviving spouse or dependent parent may elect to begin receiving the family allowance payable under subdivision (c) or (d) immediately upon the later of the death of the member or when there is no dependent child, or to defer receipt of the allowance to the date the surviving spouse or dependent parent attains 60 years of age. If allowance payments commence prior to the date the surviving spouse or dependent parent attains 60 years of age, the allowance payable shall be actuarially reduced. (f) If there is no dependent child, a surviving spouse or dependent parent or parents may elect, prior to receipt of the first payment under subdivision (c) or (d), to receive the member’s accumulated retirement contributions in a lump sum subject to a reduction for any disability allowance or family allowance payments previously made. (g) (1) The allowance calculated under this section shall not include either of the following: (A) The increase in the percentage of final compensation pursuant to Section 24203.5. (B) The increase in the monthly allowance pursuant to Section 24203.6. (2) This subdivision does not constitute a change in, but is declaratory of, the existing law.

Active Death Benefits: Survivor Benefits [23850 - 23859] ( Chapter 23 added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 893, Sec. 2. ) ## 23855. (a) The survivor benefit allowance is a monthly allowance equal to one-half of the modified retirement allowance the member would have received at normal retirement age, if the member had retired and elected Option 3 pursuant to Section 24300, as that section read on December 31, 2006, naming the spouse as the option beneficiary. (b) The allowance payable under this subdivision shall be based on the member’s actual service credit and final compensation as of the date of his or her death, the retirement factor at normal retirement age, and the member’s and spouse’s ages as of the date the member would have attained normal retirement age. If the member’s death occurs after he or she attains normal retirement age, his or her actual final compensation, the retirement factor at normal retirement age, and the member’s and spouse’s ages as of the date of the member’s death shall be used in the allowance calculation. (c) The allowance calculation shall include service credit for the unused sick leave that had accrued to the member as of the date of his or her death. Eligibility for the inclusion of unused sick leave service credit and the calculation of that service credit shall be determined pursuant to Section 22717. (d) (1) The allowance calculation shall not include either of the following: (A) The increase in the percentage of final compensation pursuant to Section 24203.5. (B) The increase of the monthly allowance pursuant to Section 24203.6. (2) The amendments to this section made by the act adding this paragraph do not constitute a change in, but are declaratory of, existing law. (e) The surviving spouse may elect to begin receiving the survivor benefit allowance immediately as of the date of the member’s death or to defer receipt of the allowance to the date the member would have attained normal retirement age. If allowance payments to the surviving spouse commence prior to the date the member would have attained normal retirement age, the allowance payable shall be actuarially reduced. (f) If the spouse elects, pursuant to Section 23852, to receive the survivor benefit allowance, an additional 10 percent of final compensation shall be payable for each dependent child who is under 21 years of age, up to a maximum of 50 percent of final compensation. The child’s portion shall begin to accrue on the day following the member’s date of death and shall be payable even if the spouse elects to postpone receipt of the spouse’s survivor benefit allowance until the date the member would have attained normal retirement age. (g) If there is no surviving spouse, an allowance in an amount equal to 10 percent of the deceased member’s final compensation shall be paid to each dependent child who is under 21 years of age, up to a maximum of 50 percent of final compensation. If there are more than five dependent children, they shall receive allowances in equal shares of the 50 percent of final compensation. A child’s portion of the survivor benefit allowance shall begin to accrue on the day following the member’s date of death. (Amended by Stats. 2013, Ch. 559, Sec. 18.

A member retiring prior to 60 years of age, and who has attained 55 years of age, may elect to receive one-half of the service retirement allowance for normal retirement age for a limited time and then revert to the full retirement allowance for normal retirement age. (a) The retirement allowance shall be based on service credit and final compensation as of the date of retirement for service and shall be calculated with the factor for normal retirement age. (b) If the member elects a joint and survivor option under Section 24300 or 24300.1, the actuarial reduction shall be based on the member’s and beneficiary’s ages as of the effective date of the early retirement. If the member elected a preretirement option under Section 24307, the actuarial reduction shall be based on the member’s and beneficiary’s ages as determined by the provisions of that section.

The election under this section shall be made at the time the member files his or her application for service retirement allowance as provided in Section 24204. (b) A member who makes the election described in subdivision (a) shall receive a one-time, lump-sum payment in an amount that equals or does not exceed the lesser of the following amounts: (1) The actuarial present value of the amount by which (A) the monthly unmodified allowance payable to the member pursuant to this chapter exceeds (B) an amount equal to 2 percent of the member’s final compensation multiplied by the number of years of credited service and divided by 12.

The member shall not elect a new option or beneficiary pursuant to Section 24310 until one calendar year from the termination effective date has elapsed. (2) If a final decree of dissolution of marriage or a judgment of nullity has been entered or an order of separate maintenance has been made within one calendar year of the termination of benefits and the member has not retired again, upon notification to the system, the system shall cancel or change the option election in accordance with the court order with reduction pursuant to Section 24309.

(b) If the option beneficiary designated in the preretirement election of an option pursuant to Section 24307 dies prior to the member’s retirement, the preretirement election shall be canceled as of the day following the date of death and the member’s subsequent retirement allowance under this part shall be subject to the allowance reduction prescribed in this section.

Any change or cancellation of the designation of the option beneficiary under this subdivision shall result in the allowance reduction prescribed in this section.
