Restores the right to serve on a jury for individuals with expunged felony convictions in West Virginia.
West Virginia HB4098 amends the eligibility requirements for jury service to allow individuals with expunged felony convictions to serve on a jury. The bill specifies that a person with a felony conviction that has been expunged is no longer disqualified from jury service. It also outlines other disqualification criteria, such as being a non-U.S. citizen, being under 18 years old, or having certain disabilities that prevent satisfactory jury service.
