If you are required to appear in court more than once in one day and the second subpoena is at least one hour after the first, what is the minimum overtime?

• A. 1hr OT
• B. No OT
• C. Additional 3hr min OT
• D. 2hr OT

Answer: (C)

When you’re required to appear in court more than once on the same day and the second subpoena starts at least one hour after the first, you’re entitled to a minimum amount of overtime under the PBSO PBA. The contract specifies a three-hour minimum of overtime in this situation. This rule recognizes that splitting court appearances in one day involves additional time outside your regular duties—travel, waiting, and the second appearance—so you’re guaranteed at least three hours of overtime regardless of the exact minutes spent in court. So the minimum overtime is three hours. The other options don’t fit because they understate the guaranteed minimum (one or two hours) or ignore overtime entirely.
