This bill amends Code of Criminal Procedure Article 404(J) to transfer the functions of the jury commission in the parishes of Ascension, Assumption, and St. James to the clerks of court in those parishes. The bill specifies that the clerks of court or their designated deputies will perform the duties and responsibilities typically assigned to jury commissioners, ensuring they have the same powers and are governed by the same legal provisions.

The changes include the deletion of the term "parish" and the insertion of "parishes" to reflect the multiple jurisdictions involved. Additionally, the bill replaces the singular "clerk" with "clerks" to indicate that each parish will have its own clerk of court responsible for these functions. The clerks will coordinate the jury venire process and receive compensation typically authorized for jury commissioners, thereby streamlining the jury selection process in these parishes.
