City Attorney – May 18th
No one other than prosecutors will be allowed in the prosecution office at the Law and Justice

Upon directive from the City Manager that Bozeman City Hall will open to the public, the City
Attorney’s Office (CAO) will also open.
- The extent of services will coincide with the directive from the City Manager regarding
phasing such as days per week and hours per day. E.g., if City Hall is open to public entry
three days per week with limited hours, the CAO will do the same.
- Until full services are reinstated and all employees are asked to return to City Hall
resuming normal operations, the CAO’s suite will remain closed to entry by the public
and non-CAO employees. We will conduct services either through remote meetings or,
for the public, exclusively through the front service window.
At the time of a partial opening, we will determine which employees will be necessary to staff
the office to accommodate direct service to the public. We will need at least two and possibly
three legal assistants in the office.
- Since the legal assistants have taken their desktops home in order for them to return to
the office it must be on a full-time basis, or at least they will no longer be able to work
from home since their desktops will be at city hall.
At partial opening, we will continue to have attorneys work remotely until a full opening occurs.
- Exceptions: Attorneys can return to the office to retrieve additional resources or files
but are asked to do so after normal office hours when no other employee is in the suite.
