Public employees: pensions: forfeiture.

Existing law provides that any elected public officer who takes public office, or is reelected to public office, on or after January 1, 2006, who is convicted of any specified felony arising directly out of his or her official duties, forfeits all rights and benefits under, and membership in, any public retirement system in which he or she is a member, effective on the date of final conviction, as specified. This bill would require any person employed at-will for the purposes of providing services to an elected public officer who takes public office, or is reelected to public office, on or after January 1, 2013, who is convicted of any specified felony arising directly out of his or her official duties, to forfeit all rights and benefits under, and membership in, any public retirement system in which he or she is a member, effective on the date of final conviction, as specified.
