BILL NUMBER:S6803
Title of bill
An act to authorize Domingo Cabrera to file a retroactive application for retirement with the New York state teachers' retirement system
Purpose
This bill would allow Domingo Cabrera to receive retirement benefits from the New York State Teachers' Retirement System.
Summary of provisions
Section 1. Domingo Cabrera suffers from mental illness and ended employ- ment on January 1, 2009. This bill deems Domingo applied to the New York State Teachers' Retirement System for disability retirement benefits within 30 days of ending employment on January 1, 2009. This would negate the date he officially applied to the New York State Teachers' Retirement System for retirement benefits, May 19, 2011.
Section 2. The costs incurred in implementing this act will be borne by the New York State Teachers' Retirement System.
Justification
Domingo Cabrera is unable to work due to his mental illness. Due to his mental illness Domingo Cabrera did not file for retirement benefits within 30 days of ending his employment on January 1, 2009. Domingo Cabrera is unable to be a self sustaining member of society without receiving retroactive benefits offered by the New York State Teachers' Retirement System's retirement benefits. It is necessary for Domingo Cabrera to receive retroactive retirement benefits because these mone- tary benefits will allow Cabrera to be a sustaining member of society.
