JUDGES: Provides for the compensation of assigned retired judges. (gov sig) (EN SEE ACTUARIAL NOTE FC)

Summary

The law lets the Louisiana Supreme Court assign retired judges to courts on a contract or per‑diem basis, paying them a daily amount equal to one‑twentieth of a regular judge’s monthly salary, up to 120 days a year, plus reasonable expense reimbursement. Retired judges keep their retirement benefits, and the Supreme Court may set a lower pay rate, which removes the day‑limit restriction. The bill also clarifies retirement‑system membership rules and funds the program through employer contributions.
