redeposit accumulated contributions previously refunded to the member
in accordance with the determination of the court required by

contributions that were previously refunded to the member and that
the court has determined to be the community property interest of the

(c) If the nonmember elects to redeposit, he or she shall repay
the accumulated contributions pursuant to Section 20750 or Section
20752.

nonmember is entitled to redeposit.
(e) The right of the nonmember to redeposit is subject to the

subsequently died, prior to completing the redeposit, the board

benefit payments that exceeded those for which payment was made.
