  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1.  Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, the
beneficiary or beneficiaries of Leonard Feder, who was a member  of  the
New  York  state and local employees' retirement system and was employed
by the division of lottery upon his death on October 28, 2006 at the age
of 83 years, shall be entitled to receive a death benefit equal to  such
member's salary multiplied by three, less death benefits previously paid
to his beneficiary or beneficiaries, if, on or before December 31, 2009,
such  beneficiary  or  beneficiaries  shall file an application therefor
with the state comptroller.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
  This bill would grant an increase in the death benefit payment to  the
beneficiary  of  Leonard  Feder,  a  former member of the New York State
Employees' Retirement System who was employed by the division of lottery
until his death on October 28, 2006 at the age of 83 years.
  If this bill is enacted, there will be an immediate past service  cost
of  approximately $78,100 which would be shared by the State of New York
and all the participating employers in the  New  York  State  and  Local
Employees' Retirement System.
