Relating to permitting a prosecuting attorney or an assistant prosecuting attorney to return to service after retirement without suspending or ending payments from his or her retirement annuity during such period of additional employment.

HB 3404 allows retired prosecuting attorneys and assistant prosecuting attorneys in West Virginia to return to work for the state without losing their retirement annuity payments. Unlike most public retirees who must suspend their annuity if they take full-time state employment, this bill specifically exempts these legal professionals. It permits them to work full-time or part-time as assistant prosecuting attorneys indefinitely, with no limit on annual earnings or employment duration. The change aims to retain specialized legal expertise for the state's prosecution offices after retirement. This bill directly affects retired prosecutors who wish to return to service in their former roles.
