HB 4111 Mississippi House · 2024 Regular Session

Suffrage; restore to Leon Coleman of Jackson County.

This bill restores the right to vote to Leon Coleman, a resident of Jackson County, Mississippi, who had previously lost his voting rights due to a conviction for possession of stolen property. The legislation specifically addresses Coleman's case by noting that he has completed his sentence and supervised release and has since behaved as a law-abiding citizen. Once enacted, the law immediately reinstates his eligibility to participate in elections without requiring any additional legal steps or waiting periods.
