1Opinion of the Court

OPINION

Justice EAKIN.

We granted allocatur on the following questions:

1. Did the Commonwealth Court err by interpreting the “Leave for service with a collective bargaining organization” Section 8102 of the Retirement Code as preventing Petitioners from receiving full credit for the final average salaries they earned while serving as officers in a collective bargaining organization?

2. Did the Commonwealth Court err by holding that Petitioners’ salaries artificially enhanced or inflated their retirement benefits?
