In Re Marriage of Alarcon
California Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
BUTLER, J.
The Judges’ Retirement System appeals a judgment declaring provisions of Government Code sections 75033 and 75033.5 1 of the Judges’ Retirement Law (§§ 75000-75109) inapplicable to the interests of Arthur and Lynn Alarcon in retirement allowances. Those provisions bar or reduce pension benefits to a California sitting judge like Alarcon who accepts appointment to the federal bench. We conclude Alarcon’s right to a pension benefit is not barred. The amount, however, is reducible, and we remand to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
