Section 19882 Of Article 5. Nonindustrial Disability Leave From California Government Code >> Division 5. >> Title 2. >> Part 2.6. >> Chapter 2.5. >> Article 5.
19882
. (a) Except as provided in this section, an individual is not
eligible for disability benefits under this article for any day of
unemployment and disability for which he or she has received, or is
entitled to receive "other benefits" in the form of cash payments.
(b) "Other benefits" as used in this section means:
(1) Temporary disability indemnity under a workers' compensation
law of this state or of any other state or of the federal government
or under Article 4 (commencing with Section 19869) of this part.
(2) Temporary disability benefits under any employer's liability
law of this state or of any other state or of the federal government.
(c) If such "other benefits" are less than the amount an
individual would otherwise receive as disability benefits under this
article, he or she shall be entitled to receive, for such day, if
otherwise eligible, disability benefits under this article reduced by
the amount of such "other benefits." If after receipt of, or
determination of entitlement to receive, such other benefits, a claim
for disability benefits under this article is filed during the same
continuous period of disability, because of a disability for which a
claim for such other benefits was made, the maximum amount of
disability benefits payable under this article during the disability
benefit period thereby established shall be reduced by the amount of
such "other benefits" which the claimant has received or has been
determined to be entitled to receive.
(d) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the
provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to
Section 3517.5, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling
without further legislative action, except that if such provisions of
a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the
provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the
Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
