Ala. Admin. Code r. 670-X-15-.05
Employees in the state service who are required by a court to attend such court in the capacity of jurors shall be granted a special leave with pay to attend such court, which shall be reported as such. Attendance in a court by law enforcement officers and other employees of the state as witnesses in their official capacities shall not be considered as special leave, but rather as a part of their assigned duties; and no provision of this section shall alter or affect in any way the existing statutes or rules regulating such attendance and the disposition of witness fees. Employees who are called as witnesses in their individual capacities are not entitled to a special leave, and should request for time off through annual leave or leave without pay.
