HB 26 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

CLERKS OF COURT: Provides relative to the jury commission for Red River Parish

This bill transfers the responsibility for managing jury commissions in Red River Parish from a separate commission to the parish clerk of court. Under the new rules, the clerk or a designated deputy will handle all tasks related to selecting and coordinating juries, including receiving the same pay as a jury commissioner. This change applies specifically to Red River Parish and aligns its administrative structure with several other parishes in Louisiana that have already made this shift.
