Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(40 ILCS 5/5-159) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 5-159)

Sec. 5-159.

Re-entry of pensioner or annuitant into service.

When
a policeman who has withdrawn after the effective date re-enters service,
any annuity previously granted to him and any annuity
fixed for his wife shall be cancelled. The policeman shall be credited
for annuity purposes with sums sufficient to provide annuities equal to
those cancelled for him and his wife, as of their respective ages on the
date of re-entrance into service.

Deductions from salary
and contributions by
the city for all purposes of this Article shall be made, and upon
subsequent retirement new annuities based upon the amount then to his
credit for annuity purposes and the entire term of his service shall be
fixed for the policeman and his wife.

If such policeman's wife, for whom annuity has been fixed prior to
his re-entrance into service, has died or her marriage to such policeman
has been dissolved or declared invalid before he re-entered service, no
part, of any sum or sums to the credit of such policeman for widow's
annuity or for widow's prior service annuity at the time annuity for
such wife was fixed shall be credited to such policeman at the time of
re-entry. No part of any such sum or sums shall be used to provide
annuity for any wife of such policeman who is his wife at any time after
his re-entry into service unless she was his wife at the time of his
withdrawal.

However, the payment of the pension or annuity shall continue if
re-entry into service is for the purpose of serving on a part time basis
as a street crossing guard.
