Increases the amount of allowance that trial and grand jurors are entitled to in each court of the unified court system

This bill increases the daily financial allowance for trial and grand jurors in New York's unified court system from $40 to $72. The change directly affects individuals summoned to serve on juries, ensuring they receive higher compensation for their time and reducing the financial burden on those with lower wages. Under the new provisions, jurors whose daily pay is less than $72 will receive a top-up payment to reach that amount, while employers are restricted in how much they can deduct from a juror's wages during the first three days of service. The legislation also clarifies that employers cannot fire or penalize employees for missing work to serve on a jury.
