(2) an appointment or employment of a personal attendant by a public official for attendance on the public official who, because of physical infirmities, is required to have a personal attendant; or

(3) an appointment or employment of a substitute teacher.

(b) Continuous employment. A nepotism prohibition prescribed by §100.1114(a) does not apply to the hiring, selection, appointment, confirmation, or vote for the hiring, selection, appointment, or confirmation of an individual to a charter position if:

(1) the individual was employed in the position immediately before the public official to whom the individual is related in a prohibited degree became a public official, by whatever means; and

(2) that prior employment of the individual was continuous for at least:
(A) 30 days, if the public official is an officer of a charter school;

(B) six months, if the public official is a member of the governing body of a charter school; or

(C) one year, if the public official is a member of the governing body of a charter holder.

(c) Prohibition against deliberation or voting on continued relative. If an individual continues in a position under subsection (b) of this section, the public official to whom the individual is related in a prohibited degree may not participate in any deliberation or voting on the appointment, reappointment, confirmation of the appointment or reappointment, employment, reemployment, change in status, compensation, or dismissal of the individual if that action applies only to the individual and is not taken regarding a bona fide class or category of employees.
