The County Attorney shall represent any employee who is served
with a subpoena to produce documents and/or testify in any civil or
criminal proceeding when the County Attorney determines, in his or
her discretion, that the employee is being called to testify because
of that employee’s relationship, employment or position with
the County and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, the County Attorney
determines that the employee is not charged with any criminal conduct
or the subject of an investigation related to the criminal proceeding
in which the subpoena has been served. Such legal representation by
the County Attorney shall terminate when the subpoena has been quashed
or withdrawn or when the employee has completed his testimony and
fully complied with the subpoena.
