(b) All supernumerary justices and judges and retired justices and judges shall fall within the retirement category and there shall be no differences between the same in regard to social security, tax benefits or advantages and employee benefits, and uniformity of treatment shall be given and accorded unless statutes specifically otherwise provide.
(c) Any justice or judge who is eligible or who will become eligible in the future for supernumerary benefits or retirement benefits shall not forfeit any right by failing to apply for such status at the time that he left or leaves active state service but shall be entitled to all such rights whenever he applies for the same.
