    Section 419 of the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973 (the Act), 

Pub. L. 93-113, 87 Stat. 413, authorizes the Director of ACTION to pay 

expenses incurred in judicial and administrative proceedings for the 

defense of full-time or part-time volunteers serving under the Act. 

These include counsel fees, court costs, bail or other expenses 

incidental to the volunteer's defense. For part-time volunteers, section 

419 provides that the proceeding must arise directly out of the 

performance of activities pursuant to the Act.
