Where a municipal police officer acts at the direction of a prosecutor, the state shall first obtain the permission of the municipal chief of police. Where a municipal police officer acts at the direction of a prosecutor or pursuant to a court order in a public nuisance matter, the officer and the municipality shall be indemnified against any losses, damages or liabilities arising within the scope of such duties, and the police officer shall be deemed an employee of the state for purposes of indemnification.
(b) In any public nuisance proceeding, an order by the court closing the real property or any portion thereof shall not be deemed to pass dominion, title, possession or control over the real property to the state.
