The name of a person whose eligibility is retained under the provisions of this section beyond the time other names are removed from a list pursuant to Section 18901 shall be certified ahead of the names of persons on more recently prepared lists, except that the name shall be removed from the list if he or she refuses or has refused to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his or her release from the armed forces.

A veteran who was reinstated from military leave shall receive layoff seniority credits for the time spent on the leave on the same basis as if it were service in the employee's former position. 19775.7. Whenever a state employee is certified for appointment to a higher position by a department before entering military service and the department has requested his service, but was unable to complete any procedural requirement for such appointment by reason of entry into recognized military service and is eligible for reinstatement pursuant to Section 19780, he shall be afforded an opportunity to complete the necessary requirement for such appointment immediately upon return to state service and if completed satisfactorily shall be considered as having been appointed as of the earliest date of appointment appearing on the certificate of eligibles and shall be considered as having been on military leave from such position. 19775.8. Except as provided in Section 19781, when any person successfully completes part of an open or promotional examination but is unable to complete all portions thereof because of entry into recognized military service, the board shall arrange for him to take such uncompleted portion of the examination, providing application is made not later than six months after his release from military service. Such right to complete an examination shall not continue for longer than five years after the date of the examination. If the applicant passes the examination, his name shall be placed on the eligible list that resulted from the original examination as the list stands at the time his name is placed thereon, provided if his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in the military service had his name been on the list when originally established, his eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list, pursuant to Section 18901. He shall retain his place on such list for three years from the termination of his service with the armed forces. A name thus retained on a list beyond the time other names are removed from the list, pursuant to Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his discharge from the armed forces. 19775.9. An individual on military leave from either a state civil service position held under duration appointment, a position held under an exempt appointment but included in the state civil service prior to his release from military service, or a position in any federal or other public agency, the functions of which were transferred to the state prior to his release from military service, who would be eligible for reinstatement or restoration to his position pursuant to Sections 19780 and 19782, shall be permitted to take any regular examination held while he was in the military service, or on military leave, for the class in which he had such appointment and for which he had the minimum qualifications required of applicants when the examination originally was given, within five years of the date of the original examination. The board shall arrange for him to take the identical examination if application is made not later than six months after his release from military service or six months after the effective date thereof, whichever is later. If the applicant passes the examination, his name shall be placed on the eligible list that resulted from the original examination as the list stands at the time his name is placed thereon. If his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in the military service had his name been on the list when originally established, his eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list pursuant to Section 18901. He shall retain his place on such list for three years from the termination of his service with the armed forces or one year from the date such eligibility is established, whichever is later, if his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in recognized military service had his name been on the list when originally established. A name thus retained on a list, beyond the time other names are removed from the list pursuant to the provisions of Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his discharge from the armed forces. 19776. If a promotional examination was held while an employee was on military leave that he or she would otherwise have been entitled to take, the employee shall be eligible to take the identical promotional examination within five years of the date of the original examination. The board shall arrange for him or her to take the examination within a reasonable time, provided application is made not later than six months after his or her reinstatement from military leave. If the employee qualifies in the examination, his or her name shall be placed on the open and promotional list that resulted from the original examination, as the list stands at the time his or her name is placed thereon. If his or her rating is sufficiently high for his or her name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he or she was in the military service had his or her name been on the list when originally established, his or her eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list pursuant to Section 18901. He or she shall retain his place on the list for three years from the termination of his or her service with the armed forces or one year from the date the eligibility is established, whichever is later. A name thus retained on a list, beyond the time other names are removed from the list pursuant to Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his or her discharge from the armed forces, or if he or she resigns from state service.

Except as provided in Section 19781, a person in recognized military service whose name was high enough on an employment list to be available for certification for possible permanent appointment to a position while he or she was in the armed forces of the United States shall retain his or her place on the list for three years following the date of his or her release from military service or until six months after the termination of the state military emergency, whichever is the earlier, provided, that a name shall not be retained on a list for longer than eight years after the list is established. The name of a person whose eligibility is retained under the provisions of this section beyond the time other names are removed from a list pursuant to Section 18901 shall be certified ahead of the names of persons on more recently prepared lists, except that the name shall be removed from the list if he or she refuses or has refused to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his or her release from the armed forces. Notwithstanding Section 19770, this section shall also be applicable to persons who are not civil service employees and were on active military duty because of the Iraq-Kuwait crisis. 19775.5. Any person in recognized military service, whose name appears on a promotional list, or general reemployment list, appointment from which would accord permanent status, and is retained on such list subject to Section 19775.4, shall have his name certified to fill any vacancy which may occur during the period his name is so retained on such list. The appointing power may appoint him to fill the position to take effect upon his reinstatement under the provisions of Sections 19780 and 19782. Any person in recognized military service, whose name appears on a subdivisional or departmental reemployment list and is retained on such list subject to Section 19775.4 shall have his name certified to fill any vacancy which may occur during the period his name is so retained on such list. The appointing power shall appoint him to fill the vacant position to take effect upon his reinstatement under the provisions of Sections 19780 and 19782. 19775.6. Time spent on military leave, including rehabilitation afforded by the United States or the state following recognized military service by any person having an absolute right to be restored to his or her former position, shall be considered as time spent in state service for the purpose of computing state service for a higher rate of vacation credit, other benefits accruing on the basis of state service, and rights to merit salary adjustments at the time of return to state service. A veteran who was reinstated from military leave shall receive layoff seniority credits for the time spent on the leave on the same basis as if it were service in the employee's former position. 19775.7. Whenever a state employee is certified for appointment to a higher position by a department before entering military service and the department has requested his service, but was unable to complete any procedural requirement for such appointment by reason of entry into recognized military service and is eligible for reinstatement pursuant to Section 19780, he shall be afforded an opportunity to complete the necessary requirement for such appointment immediately upon return to state service and if completed satisfactorily shall be considered as having been appointed as of the earliest date of appointment appearing on the certificate of eligibles and shall be considered as having been on military leave from such position. 19775.8. Except as provided in Section 19781, when any person successfully completes part of an open or promotional examination but is unable to complete all portions thereof because of entry into recognized military service, the board shall arrange for him to take such uncompleted portion of the examination, providing application is made not later than six months after his release from military service. Such right to complete an examination shall not continue for longer than five years after the date of the examination. If the applicant passes the examination, his name shall be placed on the eligible list that resulted from the original examination as the list stands at the time his name is placed thereon, provided if his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in the military service had his name been on the list when originally established, his eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list, pursuant to Section 18901. He shall retain his place on such list for three years from the termination of his service with the armed forces. A name thus retained on a list beyond the time other names are removed from the list, pursuant to Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his discharge from the armed forces. 19775.9. An individual on military leave from either a state civil service position held under duration appointment, a position held under an exempt appointment but included in the state civil service prior to his release from military service, or a position in any federal or other public agency, the functions of which were transferred to the state prior to his release from military service, who would be eligible for reinstatement or restoration to his position pursuant to Sections 19780 and 19782, shall be permitted to take any regular examination held while he was in the military service, or on military leave, for the class in which he had such appointment and for which he had the minimum qualifications required of applicants when the examination originally was given, within five years of the date of the original examination. The board shall arrange for him to take the identical examination if application is made not later than six months after his release from military service or six months after the effective date thereof, whichever is later. If the applicant passes the examination, his name shall be placed on the eligible list that resulted from the original examination as the list stands at the time his name is placed thereon. If his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in the military service had his name been on the list when originally established, his eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list pursuant to Section 18901. He shall retain his place on such list for three years from the termination of his service with the armed forces or one year from the date such eligibility is established, whichever is later, if his rating is sufficiently high for his name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he was in recognized military service had his name been on the list when originally established. A name thus retained on a list, beyond the time other names are removed from the list pursuant to the provisions of Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his discharge from the armed forces. 19776. If a promotional examination was held while an employee was on military leave that he or she would otherwise have been entitled to take, the employee shall be eligible to take the identical promotional examination within five years of the date of the original examination. The board shall arrange for him or her to take the examination within a reasonable time, provided application is made not later than six months after his or her reinstatement from military leave. If the employee qualifies in the examination, his or her name shall be placed on the open and promotional list that resulted from the original examination, as the list stands at the time his or her name is placed thereon. If his or her rating is sufficiently high for his or her name to have been included on a certification to a permanent position while he or she was in the military service had his or her name been on the list when originally established, his or her eligibility shall be established, notwithstanding the removal of names from the original list pursuant to Section 18901. He or she shall retain his place on the list for three years from the termination of his or her service with the armed forces or one year from the date the eligibility is established, whichever is later. A name thus retained on a list, beyond the time other names are removed from the list pursuant to Section 18901, shall be removed if the person refuses to accept appointment to a permanent position after certification thereto subsequent to his or her discharge from the armed forces, or if he or she resigns from state service.
