Nothing in this chapter may be construed to remove or waive the immunity of judicial officers or agents in the performance of their duties. The fund shall, however, provide legal services, if requested by the Supreme Court, to defend judicial officers or agents should they be sued in any court for official acts in the performance of their duties. The payment of legal costs shall in no way be construed as a waiver of judicial immunity.
