Senate Bill No. by Senator Talbot amends the Sheriffs' Pension and Relief Fund to expand membership eligibility. The bill specifically adds criers of the supreme court to the existing membership provisions, which already include criers of the Civil District Court for the parish of Orleans. This change ensures that criers of both courts are recognized as members of the pension fund, provided they meet the age and salary requirements outlined in the law.

The effective date for this amendment is set for June 30, 2026. If the bill is vetoed by the governor but later approved by the legislature, it will take effect the day after legislative approval or on June 30, 2026, whichever is later.
