Jury Duty and Court Appearance. Employees shall be provided paid leave for all working time lost up to a full shift when called to serve on jury duty, provided that fees paid by the court (except travel and parking expenses) shall be remitted to the District. Court service when subpoenaed as a witness will be treated the same as jury duty, provided the employee or a member of the employee’s family as defined in Article 13 Section 8 A. 2. is not a party to the action. An employee who reports for jury duty, or who has been subpoenaed and is dismissed, shall report for work the remainder of the working day, provided that at least two hours of a working shift would remain after the employee travels to the work assignment. Second and third shift employees will be given the same consideration. Employees who do not work on the first shift, if called to jury duty, shall be considered to be on the first shift during the jury duty assignment; if such employee does not serve on jury duty for at least five (5) hours, that employee will contact the Operations Department or appropriate High School principal immediately when dismissed from jury duty for the day and will be assigned a duty station for the remainder of the first shift work day at the discretion of the Operations Department. An employee's annual leave shall be charged and then reinstated once the employee has remitted to the District the fees paid by the court, less travel and parking expenses.
