I don’t understand SSS. What catches your eye with the word effective?

It's a lawyer's deal. It didn't happen then--someone managed to do it much later and make it "effective" at an earlier date so that he doesn't appear to have been in violation of the law then; and so that he appears to be eligible to hold positions for which it is a prerequisite.
