AN ACT ESTABLISHING A SICK LEAVE BANK FOR ZENAIDA CORREIA, AN EMPLOYEE OF THE TRIAL COURT

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:

Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to establish forthwith a sick leave bank for a certain employee of the trial court, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.

SECTION 1.

Notwithstanding any general or special law or rule or regulation to the contrary, the chief justice for administration and management of the trial court shall establish a sick leave bank for Zenaida Correia a fiscal specialist II of the administrative office of the juvenile court.  Any employee of the trial court may voluntarily contribute 1 or more of his sick, personal or vacation days or compensatory time to said sick leave bank for use by said Zenaida Correia for her illness or the illness of her spouse.  Upon such time as said Zenaida Correia terminates employment with the trial court or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, the balance of sick leave shall be transferred to the judicial sick leave bank, established pursuant to section 4 of chapter 211B of the General Laws.
