ARTICLE G.26         JURY DUTY AND APPEARANCES IN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

1.         A teacher, upon written application to his/her respective supervisor, shall be granted a leave of absence with pay when summoned for jury duty or required to attend any legal proceedings by reason of subpoena.  The written request must be received by the respective supervisor five (5) working days in advance of the leave of absence date unless such notice is impractical due to lateness of subpoena being received by the teacher.
 
2.         Where a teacher is reasonably required to attend proceedings in connection with the interpretation or application of this agreement, the Board shall grant leave with pay.
 
3.         A teacher, upon written application to his/her supervisor, shall be granted a leave of absence with pay where the private affairs of a teacher have otherwise occasioned an appearance in legal proceedings.  The written request must be received by the respective supervisor five (5) working days in advance of the leave of absence date unless such notice is impractical due to lateness of subpoena being received by the teacher.  The cost of a substitute teacher shall be borne by the teacher.
