8-36-113. Satisfaction of claims of state against terminated member upon application for withdrawal of contributions.
(a) If the service of any member is terminated, for any reason, and such member is found to owe money to the state, the state shall be entitled to claim from the member's accumulated contributions such amounts as are owed to the state upon the application to withdraw such member's accumulated contributions. Such claim must be made in writing to the director of the retirement system by the appropriate party of the agency involved and must specify the reason for the claim and the amount involved. After the state's claim is satisfied from such contributions, the member may withdraw any portion of the member's remaining contributions.
(b) Should the member elect not to withdraw the accumulated contributions, no claim on such contributions shall be enforceable under this provision.
