Clarifies excuse from jury service for members of the military or reserve under certain circumstances; repeals N.J.S.38A:4-6.
This bill clarifies that active-duty military members and reservists can be excused from jury duty when deployed or on active duty. It repeals an existing law (N.J.S.38A:4-6) that previously allowed this exemption without requiring proof of military status. Instead, the bill amends jury service rules to require military members to submit a certification to the court confirming their unavailability due to deployment or duty assignment. This directly affects service members summoned for jury duty during active military service.
