(B) If the member believes that, because of his or her personal interest, he or she should abstain from participating in the vote on the legislation, he or she shall so advise the presiding officer before the commencement of the vote and shall be excused from voting on the legislation without any entry on the journal of the fact of his or her personal interest. If a rule of the house requiring that each member who is present vote aye or nay is invoked, the presiding officer shall order the member excused from compliance and shall order entered on the journal a simple statement that the member was excused from voting on the legislation pursuant to law.

The retirement allowance for a legislative statutory officer is an annual amount equal to 3 percent of the compensation payable to the officer at the time the officer vacates that legislative statutory office, or payable to the incumbent of that legislative statutory office at the time payments of the allowance fall due, whichever is higher, multiplied by the number of years of service with which the legislative statutory officer is entitled to be credited at the time of the officer’s retirement. In no event shall the allowance payable under this section exceed two-thirds of the compensation payable to the legislative statutory officer at the time the officer vacates that legislative statutory office, or two-thirds of the compensation payable to the incumbent of that legislative statutory office at the time payments of the allowance fall due, whichever is the higher; provided, however, the allowance shall be further adjusted to reflect cost-of-living increases occurring after the retirement of the legislative statutory officer as determined under Section 9360.10 without respect to the limitations set forth in this section.

If a legislative statutory officer is entitled to a retirement allowance under any other state administered public retirement system, and the officer’s total retirement allowances under both systems exceed the maximum allowance to which the officer would be entitled under this section with 20 years service in that legislative statutory office, the allowance payable under this section shall be reduced to the amount that it, combined with the retirement allowance to which the officer is entitled under the other system, does not exceed the maximum allowance to which the officer would be entitled under this section with 22 1/3 years service in that legislative statutory office.

In no event shall the allowance be based on a compensation greater than the compensation the member received for such service.

The complaint shall be filed within 12 months of the most recent act of reprisal complained about.

(b) Any person who intentionally engages in acts of reprisal, retaliation, threats, coercion, or similar acts against a California State University employee, including an officer or faculty member, or applicant for employment for having made a protected disclosure, is subject to a fine not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000) and imprisonment in the county jail for up to a period of one year.

If the supervisor, manager, or appointing power fails to meet this burden of proof in an adverse action against the employee in any administrative review, challenge, or adjudication in which retaliation has been demonstrated to be a contributing factor, the employee shall have a complete affirmative defense in the adverse action.

Moneys remaining in a program account upon termination, after payment of all expenses and claims incurred prior to the date of termination, shall be deposited in the General Fund.

(g) The Legislature finds and declares that the program shall be operated for the exclusive benefit of employees of State Bargaining Unit 5.

(h) This section shall be operative only to the extent that funding is provided in the annual Budget Act or another statute and solely for the benefit of employees of State Bargaining Unit 5.

(a) (1) When a school employer determines a wage overpayment has been made to a school employee, it shall notify the employee in writing of the overpayment, afford the employee an opportunity to respond before commencing recoupment actions, and inform the school employee of their rights specified in paragraph (4). If the school employee agrees that the school employer overpaid them in the claimed amount, reimbursement shall be made to the school employer through one of the following methods mutually agreed to by the employee and the school employer:

(A) Cash payment or cash installment payments.

(B) Installment payments through payroll deduction covering at least the same number of pay periods in which the error occurred.

(c) A legal action shall not be taken by the school employer pursuant to this section to recover an overpayment unless the action is initiated within three years from the date of overpayment. The school employer shall not recover overpayments made to a school employee more than three years before the school employer initiates the action. If an overpayment involves leave credits, the date of overpayment is the date that the school employee receives compensation in exchange for leave erroneously credited to the employee. For purposes of this section, leave hours are considered exchanged for compensation in the order they were credited.

(d) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Chapter 10.7 (commencing with Section 3540) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code, that was in effect on July 31, 2022, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling until the expiration or renewal of the memorandum of understanding.

(5) No more than 13 percent of the total annual revenues shall be allocated for payment of expenses of the lottery as described in this chapter.
