With respect to indemnification under MCC 2.25.020 or 2.25.030, a termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, by itself, create a presumption that said person acted, or failed to act, other than in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the city; and with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. [Code 2004 § 2-114.]
