For sworn personnel placed in a light duty capacity for more than how many weeks, they must relinquish their Sheriff's Office issued firearm and assigned vehicle until returning to full duty capacity?

• A. One week
• B. Three weeks
• C. Two weeks
• D. Four weeks

Answer: (C)

The key point is safety and equipment control when someone is not at full duty due to light duty status. If a sworn officer remains on light duty beyond two weeks, the department requires them to relinquish the Sheriff’s Office firearm and their assigned vehicle until they return to full duty. This two-week threshold strikes a balance: brief restrictions don’t automatically remove critical gear, but a longer period raises safety and security concerns that warrant temporary removal of weapons and vehicle to prevent risks while the officer recovers or is reassessed. The other durations don’t align with that established cutoff, which is why two weeks is the correct threshold.
