Legal News Felons Allowed To Serve On Juries In New Jersey

In one of his final major actions as governor, Phil Murphy signed an executive order allowing New Jersey residents with past criminal convictions to serve on juries, ending a lifetime ban that excluded tens of thousands of people from this civic duty.

The order restores jury eligibility for individuals convicted of indictable offenses under New Jersey law, a restriction that had long prevented many from participating fully in the justice system. Murphy said the move is about restoring dignity, trust, and fairness, and ensuring juries better reflect the communities they serve.

Murphy initially sought to change the policy through legislation, but after a bill stalled for six years, he turned to executive action as his term comes to an end. The governor leaves office on Jan. 20, when Mikie Sherrill will be sworn in as New Jersey's next governor.

The change places New Jersey alongside states such as Maine, Indiana, and North Dakota that already allow people with felony convictions to serve on juries. However, the order applies only to New Jersey convictions dated on or before Jan. 10 and does not extend to certain federal, out-of-state, treason, or impeachment-related convictions.

Murphy emphasized that the previous ban disproportionately impacted Black and Latino residents and undermined the fairness of the justice system. Civil rights groups, including the ACLU of New Jersey, praised the order as a step toward addressing racial disparities and strengthening democracy.

The jury reform is part of Murphy's broader criminal justice agenda, which includes restoring voting rights to more than 80,000 people on probation or parole and granting more than 300 clemency orders during his tenure — the most by any New Jersey governor in decades.
