                 Act of Dec. 16, 1982, P.L. 1354, No. 309             Cl. 65

        The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
     hereby enacts as follows:

     the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania who resigns from office shall
     be ineligible for reappointment to that office during the
     remainder of the term for which he was appointed or for a period
     of one year, whichever is less, if such reappointment would
     increase his salary or emoluments. However, nothing contained in
     this act shall prevent such an officer from being reappointed to
     the same office from which he resigned if such reappointment
     does not result in a higher salary obtaining than such person
     received at the date of his resignation.
        Section 2.  This act shall take effect immediately.
