Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court ruled that a judge retiring after January 1, 1999, retains the right to a pension under the 1998 Social Security Act. The court found that the applicant met age and contribution requirements and that the continued service did not negate his accrued rights. The decision relied on the principle of legal certainty to prevent unequal treatment compared to judges who retired before the new rules took effect.
