Prohibiting Disability and Age Discrimination in Federal Jury Service

New rules aim to ensure that individuals with disabilities and of various ages are not excluded from serving on federal juries. This means more citizens will have the opportunity to participate in court proceedings, provided their disability can be reasonably accommodated.
Key points
Non-discrimination: Disability and age cannot be reasons for exclusion from jury service.
Reasonable accommodation: Individuals with disabilities can serve on juries if reasonable accommodations are possible.
