Rancho Cordova, CA asked in Employment Law and Public Benefits for California

Q: I would like to receive the Opinion of the California Supreme Court rendered on July 30, 2020, regarding pensions.

The opinion of the Court resolved the eligibility of former public employees to receive pensions that are based on incomes that include overtime, or increased pay for extra work on the part of the employees. This opinion was rendered on July 30, 2020, and it interpreted legislation that was signed by Governor Jerry Brown named the Public Employees Pension Reform Act (PEPRA). I would like to receive the entire opinion including minority opinions of Court members. If I need to pay for copying or mailing the opinion, I am prepared to pay so please specify this amount.
