Relates to a death benefit option for the wife of deceased justice Jerry Garguilo

Summary

The bill lets Angela Garguilo, the surviving spouse of the late Justice Jerry Garguilo, choose a one‑time payment that matches the pension reserve he would have earned had he retired, or the value of any existing death benefit plus a reserve for increased take‑home pay, whichever is higher. It also specifies how the amount is calculated if a decision was required before the law took effect. The state will cover any associated costs, spreading them over ten years, and the measure takes effect immediately.
