(a) Accrued sick leave and annual leave to be transferred.--Subject to the provisions of subsection (b), sick leave and annual leave accrued by a transferred administrator prior to the date of transfer shall be transferred based upon the accrued sick leave and annual leave balances credited to the transferred administrator by the employing county as of the day immediately preceding the transferred administrator's date of transfer.
(b) Accrued sick leave and annual leave to be credited.--Credit for the sick leave and annual leave transferred under subsection (a) shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted for sick leave and annual leave carryover leave allowances from calendar year to calendar year by State judicial personnel policies in effect on the date of transfer. Accrued sick leave or annual leave transferred under this section shall be used by the transferred administrator only as a credit toward sick leave or annual leave, as the case may be, to be taken in the future. The sick leave or annual leave credited under this subsection shall not, at the time of transfer, be reimbursed to the transferred administrator in the form of a lump sum payout or other leave payout or in any other form which may be permitted by the personnel policies of the employing county in effect on the day immediately preceding the date of transfer. In the event a transferred administrator has accrued leave that is eligible for transfer and that under the employing county's personnel policies in effect on the day immediately preceding the date of transfer could be used by the transferred administrator as either sick leave or annual leave, such leave shall be credited to the transferred administrator with one-half of the leave designated as sick leave and one-half of the leave designated as annual leave.
(c) Excess leave.--Credit for accrued sick leave or annual leave which exceeds the maximum allowed by subsection (b) shall be subject to leave policies in effect in the employing county on the day immediately preceding the date of transfer. Any lump sum payments or other sick leave payments or annual leave payments made pursuant to this subsection are and shall remain the financial responsibility of the employing county.
