71828
. (a) This chapter does not apply to trial courts in Solano
and Ventura Counties. Labor and employment relations for court
interpreters employed by trial courts in Solano and Ventura Counties
shall remain subject to the Trial Court Employment Protection and
Governance Act (Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 71600)), and
nothing in this chapter shall be construed to affect the application
of that act to court interpreters employed by those counties.
(b) If an interpreter employed by a trial court in a different
county accepts a temporary appointment to perform services for a
trial court in Solano or Ventura County, the interpreter shall be
treated for purposes of compensation, employee benefits, seniority,
and discipline and grievance procedures, as having performed the
services in the trial court in which the interpreter is employed.
(c) If an interpreter employed by a trial court in Solano or
Ventura County accepts a temporary appointment to perform services
for another trial court, the interpreter shall be treated for
purposes of compensation, employee benefits, seniority, and
discipline and grievance procedures, as having performed the services
in the trial court in which the interpreter is employed.
(d) This chapter also does not apply to court interpreters who
have been continuously employed by a trial court in any county
beginning prior to September 1, 2002, and who are covered by a
memorandum of understanding or agreement entered into pursuant to the
Trial Court Employment Protection and Governance Act (Chapter 7
(commencing with Section 71600)), and to future employees hired in
the same positions as replacements for those employees. For any other
certified or registered interpreters hired by trial courts as
employees prior to December 31, 2002, the trial courts may not change
existing job classifications and may not reduce their wages and
benefits during the regional transition period or during the term of
an existing contract, whichever is longer.
