Dear Council President Tedesco: •�>> i � .,���.
Enclosed please find a Resolution providing for indemnification
of attorney interns assisgned to this office.
By way of background, the law firm of Robins Zelle Larson &
Kaplan some time ago approached this office with a proposal
that attorneys hired by them undergo an internship with the
Criminal Division of our office. It was their intent that
the attorney so assigned would develop their trial skills and
get a first-hand experience in the court room atmosphere that
is part and parcel of our day to day work. The law firm has
now proposed formalizing this relationship and has submitted
a contract to that end.
The contract would provide that the Robins firm would pay all
of the salary and fringe benefits of the interns and hold us
harmless for any Workers Compensation or Unemployment Compensation
claims as they arise. They would desire that the City indemnify
the firm for any other types of claims . The possibility of
such other claims is indeed remote and we have never experienced
any such claims as yet with our regular staff, but we understand
the Robins firm' s desire to protect itself. The claims that
they are asking us to indemnify them against would be such
things as gross attorney misconduct, etc. , leading to some
sort of a civil suit .
In view of the fact that the City is a beneficiary of the re-
lationship with Robins in the internship program, I have no
concern in recommending that the attached resolution be considered
and passed by the Council to satisfy the Robins firm' s concern
in this area.
Tha you fo o r kind consideration of this request.
