order. Any officer or employee who is removed from a position in the

service of the state or of any civil division thereof in violation of

the provisions of this chapter, and who thereafter is restored to such

position by order of the supreme court, shall be entitled to receive and

shall receive from the state or such civil division, as the case may be,

the salary or compensation which he would have been entitled by law to

have received in such position but for such unlawful removal, from the
