CASE DOCTRINE:

An impeached public officer

whose civil, criminal, or

administrative liability was not

judicially established may be

considered involuntarily retired

from service and is entitled to

retirement benefits. Retirement

is deemed involuntary when

one's profession is terminated

for reasons outside the control

and discretion of the worker.

Impeachment resulting in

removal from holding office falls

under the column on

involuntary retirement.
