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

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

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.
