In short, it follows the "English" style until the cross-condition ceases.
Here's an example that came to hand:

See the third staff, end of third measure?
The notes for the voice that is normally on the bottom - SATB alto or
TTBB second tenor, and bass - will get down-stems.
Voices normally on the top - SATB soprano or TTBB first tenor, and SATB
tenor or TTBB baritone - will get up-stems.
