Sec. 1201.7  Procedure when response to demand is required prior to receiving instructions.

    (a) If a response to a demand or request for Official Information 
pursuant to litigation is required before the General Counsel renders a 
decision, the Corporation will request that either a Department of 
Justice attorney or a Corporation attorney designated for the purpose:
    (1) Appear, if feasible, with the employee upon whom the demand has 
been made;
    (2) Furnish the court or other authority with a copy of the 
regulations contained in this part;
    (3) Inform the court or other authority that the demand or request 
has been or is being, as the case may be, referred for the prompt 
consideration of the General Counsel; and
    (4) Respectfully request the court or authority to stay the demand 
or request pending receipt of the requested instructions.
    (b) In the event that an immediate demand or request for production 
or disclosure is made in circumstances that would preclude the proper 
designation or appearance of a Department of Justice or Corporation 
attorney on behalf of the Corporation employee, the Corporation Employee 
shall respectfully request the court or other authority for a reasonable 
stay of proceedings for the purpose of obtaining instructions from the 
Corporation.
