Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(40 ILCS 5/18-122) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 18-122)
Sec. 18-122.
Participation; military service.
Participation shall
continue until the date a participant becomes an annuitant, dies, or
accepts a refund.
Participation shall not cease during any period an eligible judge is
serving with the military or naval forces of the United States while the
United States is engaged in any war or for one year after such war, if the
judge makes contributions, together with any interest payments which might
be required, for delayed contribution payments.
A participant may also apply for creditable service for up to 2 years
of military service that need not have followed service as a judge and need
not have been served during wartime. However, for this military service
not immediately following employment as a judge, the applicant must make
contributions to the System (1) at the rates provided in Section 18-133
based upon the judge's rate of compensation on the last date as a
participating judge prior to such military service, or on the first date as
a participating judge after such military service, whichever is greater,
plus (2) if payment is made on or after May 1, 1993, an amount
determined by the Board to be equal to the employer's normal cost of the
benefits accrued for such military service, plus (3) interest at the effective
rate from the date of first membership in the System to the date of payment.
The amendment to this Section made by this amendatory Act of 1993 shall
apply to persons who are active contributors to the System on or after
November 30, 1992. A person who was an active contributor to the System on
November 30, 1992 but is no longer an active contributor may apply to purchase
military credit not immediately following employment as a judge within 60 days
after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1993; if the person is an
annuitant, the resulting increase in annuity shall begin to accrue on the first
day of the month following the month in which the required payment is received
by the System. The change in the required contribution for purchased military
credit made by this amendatory Act of 1993 shall not entitle any person to a
refund of contributions already paid.
