courts for a period or periods aggregating 22 years and has ended such service is,

after reaching the age of 60 years, entitled to receive annually from the State of

Nevada, as a pension during the remainder of his or her life, a sum of money equal

in amount to three-fourths the sum received as a salary for his or her judicial services

during the last year thereof, payable monthly from the Judicial Retirement Fund established

pursuant to NRS 1A.160 . 2. Any judge of the Court of Appeals who has served as a justice of the Supreme Court,

judge of the Court of Appeals or judge of a district court in any one or more of those

courts for a period or periods aggregating 5 years and has ended such service is,

after reaching the age of 60 years, entitled to receive annually from the State of

Nevada, as a pension during the remainder of his or her life, a sum of money equal

in amount to 4.1666 percent of the sum received as a salary for his or her judicial

services during the last year thereof, payable monthly from the Judicial Retirement

Fund established pursuant to NRS 1A.160 . 3. Any judge of the Court of Appeals who qualifies for a pension under the provisions

of subsection 2 is entitled to receive, for each year served beyond 5 years up to

a maximum of 22 years, an additional 4.1666 percent of the sum received as a salary

for his or her judicial services during the last year thereof, payable as provided

in subsection 2. 4. Any judge who has retired pursuant to subsection 3 and is thereafter recalled to

additional active service in the court system is entitled to receive credit toward

accumulating 22 years' service for the maximum pension based upon the time he or she

actually spends in the additional active service. 5. Any judge who has the years of service necessary to retire but has not attained

the required age may retire at any age with a benefit actuarially reduced to the required

retirement age. A benefit under this subsection must be reduced in the same manner as benefits are

reduced for persons retired under the Public Employees' Retirement System. 6. Any person receiving a pension pursuant to the provisions of this section is entitled

to receive postretirement increases equal to those provided for persons retired under

the Public Employees' Retirement System. 7. Any judge who desires to receive the benefits of this section must file with the

Executive Officer of the Public Employees' Retirement Board an affidavit setting forth

the fact that the judge is ending his or her service, the date and place of his or

her birth, and the years he or she has served in any district court, the Court of

Appeals or the Supreme Court. 8. The faith of the State of Nevada is hereby pledged that this section will not be

repealed or amended so as to affect any judge who may have ended his or her service

pursuant to it.
