Any employee, who is called upon for jury duty or as a witness in a court of law, shall be granted a leave of absence for the period of such duty. The City shall pay the employee the amount of pay which the employee would have normally received during the absent time providing the employee turns over any compensation received for time served during the normal work period. Where jury or witness duty would create an undue hardship on City operations, the City will attempt to gain the excuse of those individuals, and will need their cooperation to do so.
