§952.39. Restoration to active service

A. If any former employee with deferred vesting rights or if any beneficiary is restored to active service, any retirement allowance shall cease, any election of an optional benefit in effect thereunder shall become void, and he shall again become a member of the retirement system. An amount equal to the actuarial reserve held for the part of his retirement allowance provided by his contributions shall be credited to him as accumulated contributions and any credited service to which he was entitled when he retired shall be restored to him. Upon his subsequent retirement or separation with an election to receive a vested deferred retirement allowance, his allowance shall be based on his regular compensation and credited service before and after the period of prior retirement; provided that if he does not complete five years of credited service after his restoration to service, his retirement allowance upon subsequent retirement shall not exceed the sum of the retirement allowance which he was receiving immediately prior to his last restoration and a retirement allowance calculated on the basis of his regular compensation and credited service since his last restoration.

B. Whenever a prior member of the retirement system who has received a refund reenters service prior to age sixty and again becomes a member of the Louisiana State University Retirement System and remains a contributing member for two years, he may repay all amounts previously received by him as a refund, together with interest thereon at the current regular interest rate as determined by the board of supervisors from the date of withdrawal until paid. Upon making such repayment the member shall again receive credit for all creditable service which he forfeited upon receipt of the refund.
