New Jersey S121 establishes a $40 daily pay rate for jurors.

New Jersey S121 amends the law to increase the daily pay rate for jurors from $5 to $40. This change applies to all jurors, except certain full-time government employees. The bill also appropriates $6,000,000 from the General Fund to the Administrative Office of the Courts to cover this increased pay. The Assignment Judge will oversee the payment process and provide jurors with a statement of their service days and pay.
