We review issues of statutory interpretation de novo on appeal where there are no disputed factual issues. ( Alesi v. Board of Retirement (2000) 84 Cal.App.4th 597, 601, 101 Cal.Rptr.2d 81.) Any interpretation of compensation that would affect retirement benefits may be applied retroactively. (See In re Retirement Cases (2003) 110 Cal.App.4th 426, 443-445, 1 Cal.Rptr.3d 790.)
