§ 26-57.11. Injuries in line of duty.  


Latest version.
  • A reserve police officer who sustains injury in the course of performing official duties may receive hospital and medical assistance in the same manner as is provided for a full-time police officer. Reserve police officers shall be eligible for death benefits as set out in Vernon's Ann. Civ. St. art. 6228f; however, nothing in this division shall be construed to authorize or permit a member of the police reserve force to become eligible for participation in any pension fund created pursuant to state statute to which regular officers may become a member by payroll deductions or otherwise.
