Pennsylvania HB1484 amends juror compensation rates and travel allowances, setting a flat rate of $40 per day for juror service and a mileage.

Pennsylvania HB1484 amends Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to revise the compensation and travel allowance for jurors. Jurors will receive a flat rate of $40 per day for each day they are required to report for service. Additionally, they will be reimbursed for travel at a rate of 17 cents per mile, except in the first judicial district where no travel allowance is provided. The bill also allows county commissioners to choose the method of compensation, which may include checks, debit cards, bank transfers, or other methods, without affecting the compensation amount.
