Commissioners ask legal staff to review Moore County Jury Commission statutory role and report back
Summary
One commissioner said a current jury commission member asked not to be reappointed and suggested the commission may have outlived its usefulness. The board asked the county attorney to review statutory requirements and report back by early next year.
During the appointments section, a commissioner said a current Moore County Jury Commission member asked not to be reappointed and suggested the commission may be obsolete. The commissioner moved that legal counsel meet with the clerk of court and other relevant parties to examine whether statutory requirements still require a separate jury commission and to report back by the first of the year.
The county attorney indicated she would research the statutory requirement—citing a possible North Carolina General Statute reference—and report back. Commissioners discussed whether the function could be handled administratively by the clerk of court or via another staff-driven alternative if the statute allows.
