For the purposes of this section, “average compensation” means the average of a member of the Plan's 36 consecutive months of highest compensation as certified by the Court Administrator if the member is a justice of the Supreme Court, a judge of the Court of Appeals or a district judge, by the county if the member is a justice of the peace or by the city if the member is a municipal judge.
