Civil Leave. Section 1. The Employer recognizes the responsibility of its employees to fulfill their civic duties as jurors and witnesses in court proceedings. The Employer agrees therefore to grant civil leave with pay to permanent employees:
Civil Leave. An employee shall be granted civil leave without loss of pay or leave under either of the following conditions:
Civil Leave. (a) If an employee receives a subpoena or other order of the court requiring an appearance during regular working hours, time off with pay and without loss of earned leave time shall be granted. This provision shall not apply in cases where the employee is a plaintiff or defendant in the court action.
Civil Leave. All employees shall be eligible for paid civil leave under the following conditions:
Civil Leave. Section 1. Permanent employees who have not volunteered for jury duty and are called for jury duty or are not a party in a civil or criminal court proceeding but are subpoenaed as a witness to attend such a court proceeding, shall be granted leaves with pay while attending court. Evidence of such duty in the form of a subpoena or other written notification shall be presented to the employee's immediate supervisor as far in advance as practicable.
Civil Leave. A. A bargaining unit member subpoenaed to appear in court for a work-related matter or serve on jury duty shall be granted leave without loss of pay. A copy of the court summons, subpoena, or letter from the court requesting the bargaining unit member’s presence must be submitted to administration.
Civil Leave. Civil leave may be allowed for employees to serve as members of a jury, take examinations for state positions, or perform other civil duties.
Civil Leave. Civil leave (not jury duty) for any purpose other than State related business shall not be treated as time worked. If a court appearance is required as part of the employee’s work and requires the employee’s presence beyond his/her normal work day, all such time shall be paid in accordance with Article 18, Section 4. It is understood that this provision shall apply to an employee who is subpoenaed to appear in court primarily because of his/her employment role.
Civil Leave. A. Civil leave with pay shall be allowed to permit an employee to serve as a juror or to testify in any federal, state, or municipal court when a subpoena compels such testimony. An employee must notify the immediate supervisor prior to taking civil leave and provide proof of compulsion.
Civil Leave. Consistent with the provisions of Article 4 of this Agreement, the Civil Leave provisions of Chapter 14 of the Administrative Code shall apply to Bargaining Unit members except as otherwise provided in this Article. An employee shall be granted Civil Leave with pay when performing jury duty, when subpoenaed to appear before any public body or commission on a job-related matter when performing emergency civilian duty in connection with national defense, or when serving as a volunteer firefighter in the employee’s response area. An employee regularly scheduled to work the evening or midnight shift may receive Civil Leave, as described above, for their regularly scheduled shift when their court-ordered service occurs immediately before or after their scheduled shift. An employee subpoenaed in the line of duty to represent the County shall either be paid per diem or travel expenses by the County (and any fees received from the Court will be turned over to the County) or may retain witness fees and mileage received from the Court. Employees will be granted up to one hour off on election days when it is not feasible to vote before or after working hours.
