Jurors; expand pool to citizens with driver's license who have filed state income taxes.

SB 2361 would expand Mississippi's jury pool by requiring prospective jurors to have both a current Mississippi driver's license and proof of filing state income taxes for at least one of the previous two tax years. This adds two new qualifications to existing requirements like age and literacy, directly affecting citizens who meet these criteria but previously might not have qualified. The bill updates jury commission procedures to maintain a master list of eligible citizens based solely on these two financial and identification requirements. If passed, the law would have taken effect July 1, 2026.
