House Bill 995 amends the Local Government Code to require a county operating under a sheriff's department civil service system to provide a sheriff's department employee a leave of absence for an illness or injury that occurred in the line of duty. The bill provides for the amount and duration of the leave, for the temporary leave of an employee who is temporarily disabled by an injury or illness that did not occur in the line of duty, and for the reinstatement or reappointment of a recovered employee.
