During deployment on active duty, how many days will D/S receive full pay before the sheriff may supplement to match the regular salary?

• A. 15 days
• B. 60 days
• C. 30 days
• D. 45 days

Answer: (C)

During active-duty deployment, the deputy sheriff is kept whole financially for a defined window to ensure a smooth transition from civilian to military pay. The rule provides full civilian pay for the first 30 days of deployment; after that period, the sheriff may supplement the deputy’s pay to bring it up to the regular salary. This 30-day window protects the deputy from an immediate drop in take-home pay and sets a clear point at which supplementation can begin, balancing financial continuity with administrative practicality. Therefore, the correct duration is 30 days.
