Attorney General Opinions

 

  Salary of superintendent of education should not be payable after removal from office.  Att. Gen. Op. 75-20.

  "Salary" does not mean "compensation"; fringe benefits are not "salary"; salary of university president is exception to norm, but unclear whether fringe benefits can be paid from private donations.  Att. Gen. Op. 85-1.
