3-12-80. Redeposit of contributions by member returning to service--Time of redeposit. If a person whose accumulated contributions have been refunded since July 1, 1974, reenters the system, the person may elect to redeposit the accumulated contributions, with compound interest at the assumed rate of return between the date of withdrawal and the date of redeposit. The redeposit shall be made within two years after reentry into the system and the credited service forfeited when contributions were refunded shall then be reinstated; any employer contributions forfeited at the time of refund shall be reinstated; and the member, except as provided in § 3-12-131, shall be regarded as having never refunded.
Any withdrawals of additional contributions made pursuant to § 3-12-104 shall be considered accumulated contributions for purposes of redeposit to reinstate the credited service forfeited when contributions were refunded.
