Summary of the Strike-Everything Amendment to SB1673

Overview

Alters the master jury list definition to include the dates of birth and, if available, telephone numbers and email addresses of eligible jurors.

History

State law requires all qualified citizens to serve on juries when summoned by the state courts, unless granted an exemption. Eligibility criteria requires every juror to be at least eighteen years of age, be a U.S. citizen, be a resident of the jurisdiction that the juror is summoned to serve, never have been convicted of a felony (unless the individual's civil rights have been restored) and not currently deemed mentally incompetent or insane (A.R.S. §§ 21-201, 21-202).

The jury commissioner for each county is responsible for generating a master jury list comprised of the names and addresses of eligible persons residing in the county. This includes persons on the county's voter registration list, other eligible persons who have received a state driver's license or commercial driver's license and persons from other lists as determined by the Supreme Court (A.R.S. § 21-301).

Provisions

1. Amends the definition of master jury list to include the dates of birth and, if available, the telephone numbers and email addresses of eligible persons who reside in the county. (Sec. 1)

2. Makes technical and conforming changes. (Sec. 1, 2)
