District of Columbia Juror Pay Parity Act

This bill would change District of Columbia law so that grand and petit jurors serving in the D.C. Superior Court receive fees and expenses at the same rates paid to jurors in federal district courts. It would also repeal a separate section of D.C. law, Section 15-718, as a conforming change. The new rates would apply to fees and expenses paid starting on the first day of the first fiscal year that begins after the bill becomes law.
