@jwalker11 If you had 5 or more years of service credited as of August 12, 1989 and received retirement benefits received from certain  defined benefit plans, such as the North Carolina Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System, the North Carolina Local Governmental Employees' Retirement System, the North Carolina Consolidated Judicial Retirement System, the Federal Employees' Retirement System, or the United States Civil Service Retirement System, then you would qualify for the Bailey Settlement.

 

Note: The exclusion does not apply to retirement benefits paid to former teachers and state employees of other states and their political subdivisions.
