I have recently retired. Now, my department is hesitant about issuing me a retired ID with the 12027 Penal Code exemption. This is insane to me...but, have found that many departments in California (Go figure) are balking at this requirement from the California Penal Code regarding retired Peace Officers and LEOSA. It has been suggested that I retain an attorney to force them to abide by the law. I need an attorney that is an expert in this area in the San Jose area. Any help my brothers and sisters will be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Your agency doesn't have a policy for retired peace officers? Have you checked? And the (now renumbered) 12027(a)(1) PC specifically says that an agency SHALL provide an ID that indicates a honorable retiree's concealed carry status.
Ask other guys who've retired what they did. Otherwise, I'd retain private competent counsel. It seems like San Jose agencies have a tendency to jerk their employees around...

If you belong to a correctional officers association or union you may want to discuss this matter with them.Last edited by BTDT2; 08-09-2014, 11:26 AM.

Does your agency, now or in the past issue retiree's Retired ID cards. If they have and have stopped the practice, they will feel the wrath of the Federal Government. If they have never issued ID Creds to retiree's you might have a problem. If they stopped the practice do to the passage of the LEOSA, as I stated the Feds will not take to kindly to that.Hey Kidd, I've got more time On Meal than you have "On the Job"

Service or Disability retirement after 10 years of service and no disqualifying issues (psych, etc.) The agency has to prove you are not eligible.

LEOSA allows for a state or agency to issue for a retired officer. There is no LEOSA REQUIREMENT. LEOSA merely states that you must cary an ID in order to carry in any state in a retired status but provides NO relief if an agency denies such an ID. So to say the state or agency will face the wrath of the federal governmment is not true. The US Supreme Court has ruled the same in the past. There is no requirement to issue in the LEOSA statutes. Any shall issue law lies at the state level.

If the agency previously issued ID cards to retiree's and then STOPPED, Yes my friend the FEDs will not take kindly to that. The agency is, in effect, trying to skirt Federal Law. That's a NO-NO and the Govnment will take the agency to task.Hey Kidd, I've got more time On Meal than you have "On the Job"
