JANET R. HALVERSON, Plaintiff and Appellant, v. ORANGE COUNTY EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM, Defendant and Respondent. INTRODUCTION The Orange County Employees Retirement System (OCERS) adopted a referee's recommendation made following an administrative hearing and denied the application of Janet R. Halverson for service-connected and nonservice-connected disability retirement. Halverson began working for the County of Orange in September 1980. Dr. Savarirayan found Halverson to be anxious and depressed, prescribed Paxil, and placed Halverson on disability for one month. (Curtis v. Board of Retirement (1986) 177 Cal. App. 3d 293, 297, quoting Mansperger v. Public Employees' Retirement System (1970) 6 Cal. App. 3d 873, 876. )
