Juror qualifications; revise.

HB 1295 revises Mississippi's juror qualifications by requiring prospective jurors to demonstrate basic literacy. The bill mandates that jurors complete a written form with personal details (name, address, occupation, etc.) before serving, which the judge must personally review to confirm they can read and write. Those unable to complete the form will be disqualified and removed from the jury pool until they qualify. This change directly affects individuals summoned for jury duty in Mississippi courts, starting July 1, 2026.
