Bill Summary
Relative to qualifications for jurors. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Section 4 of Chapter 234A of the General Laws by adding a new subsection that would exempt full-time college students whose actual residence is outside of the commonwealth from being qualified as jurors. This means that if a student is attending college full-time but lives in another state or country, they would not be eligible to serve on a jury in this commonwealth, regardless of whether they are physically present within the commonwealth for their studies.
