Cal. Gov't Code § 75077.5 — Benefits Payable is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

For a judge who dies after retirement, the spouse of a judge at death may receive benefits payable to a surviving spouse under this chapter only if the spouse was married to the judge as of January 1, 1980, or continuously for a period beginning one year prior to the date of retirement and ending with the judge’s death.

It is the intent of the Legislature that this section apply to all judges first appointed or elected to office on and after January 1, 1980, or to any judge who marries on or after January 1, 1980.
