An Act relative to jury duty parking fees

This bill requires Massachusetts district courts to reimburse jurors for parking fees incurred during jury service, up to $50 per day. It directly affects citizens summoned for jury duty who pay parking costs while serving. The key provision mandates that courts cover these fees, capping reimbursement at $50 daily. The policy change simplifies cost recovery for jurors without altering jury service requirements.
