Member's Right to Internal Informal Appeal of a Determination by CalSTRS Staff of a Right to a Benefit or Obligation
The California Education Code authorizes CalSTRS to hold a hearing for the purpose of determining any question presented to it involving any right, benefit, or obligation. The proposed regulations govern the process that occurs before a hearing is held by CalSTRS. The proposed regulations reflect a structure that guides the member through an administrative remedy process and are designed to assist the member in moving their request or contention forward within CalSTRS. CalSTRS has reached out to employers and other advocacy groups to provide information and request feedback on the draft internal appeal regulations.
On Friday, July 15, 2011, the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for the Internal Appeal regulations was published in the California Regulatory Notice Register. Interested parties are invited to participate in the rulemaking process by submitting written comments during the 45-day written comment period or by attending the public hearing on September 22, 2011. Please see the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for more details.
