Must employer defend when sues employee?

[kansaskid]

When employer sues former employee, alleging damages from negligent conduct performed during prior course and scope of the employee's duties for the prior employer, must the former employer also defend/advance legal fees funding for the employee's defense of the former employer's suit against him/her?

Of course not, why would you think so?

Your post is very vague.
