Third Amendment Reaffirmation and Protection Act

Summary

The bill changes West Virginia’s jury qualification law so that a service member on active duty outside the state who has given up their primary residence but still maintains WV residency is not automatically disqualified from jury duty. The court may excuse the juror at their request. This update reinforces the Third Amendment’s ban on quartering soldiers in private homes.
