Bill > H2221

This bill amends Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 234A, Section 4, to create new exemptions from jury duty for certain individuals. Specifically, it exempts individuals who are the primary caregiver for another person and whose jury service would pose a health risk to that person, requiring a letter from a physician to support this claim, regardless of whether the caregiver is compensated. Additionally, full-time college students are granted an exemption from jury duty during their period of formal full-time education, becoming subject to jury duty once their studies conclude.
