Any employee of the state or any political subdivision thereof who is subpoenaed as a witness to testify on any matter pertaining to their employment, including any investigation conducted by the employee as a duty of said employment for which he is fully compensated, shall not be entitled to receive the witness fee and reimbursement for mileage provided for in Section 81 of Title 28 of the Oklahoma Statutes. However, if the employee is required by the subpoena to testify in a county other than his county of residence or employment, he shall be entitled to receive reimbursement pursuant to the State Travel Reimbursement Act and the rules of the Supreme Court, payable from the court fund of the county where the prosecution is pending. No such witness shall receive such reimbursement in more than one case covering the same period of time or the same travel. Each such witness shall be required to make oath that the amounts claimed for reimbursement have not been claimed or received in any other case or from any other source.
