“System” means the retirement system provided for in this chapter or its predecessor.
The retirement system for county peace officers created by Chapter 268 of the Statutes of 1931, as amended, is continued in existence under this chapter.
The legislature occasionally skips outline levels.
For example:
(3) A person may apply [...]
(4)(a) A person petitioning for relief [...]
In this example, (3), (4),
and (4)(a) are all outline levels, but
(4) was
omitted by its authors. It's only implied. This presents an
interesting challenge when laying out the text. We've
decided to display a blank section with this note, in order
to aide readability.
