Cal. Education Code § 89545

(a) Whenever a new campus of the California State University is established and an employee is transferred from an existing campus of the California State University to the newly established campus before or during the first academic year of the newly established campus, each employee so transferred shall be entitled to retain all sickness and injury, all sabbatical and other leave rights, and all seniority and tenure rights accumulated as an employee of the existing campus of the California State University as though the rights had been accumulated as an employee of the newly established campus of the California State University. Whenever the educational program of a newly established campus of the California State University is, during the first year of its existence, limited to an off-campus educational program rather than a regular educational program, any employee transferring from an existing campus of the California State University to the newly established campus of the California State University before or during the first three academic years of the newly established campus shall be entitled to retain all sickness and injury, all sabbatical and other leave rights, and all seniority and tenure rights accumulated as an employee of the existing campus as though the rights had been accumulated as an employee of the newly established campus. (b) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling without further legislative action, except that if the provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
