For criminal matters, outside counsel shall be an Attorney for the Commonwealth and for civil matters, outside counsel shall be a county or city attorney. The compensation for the legal services provided shall be expended from funds appropriated to the Attorney General's office and paid directly to the local jurisdiction.
