An act to amend Section 890 of the Penal Code, relating to grand juries. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST Under existing law, a grand jury is a body of the required number of persons chosen from the citizens of the county to serve before a court of competent jurisdiction, and sworn to inquire of public offenses that are committed or triable within the county. Existing law requires the fees for grand jurors to be $15 per each day’s attendance as a grand juror. This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that provision. The people of the State of California do enact as follows: SECTION 1. Section 890 of the Penal Code is amended to read: 890. Unless a higher fee or rate of mileage is otherwise provided by statute or county or city and county ordinance, the fees for grand jurors are fifteen dollars ($15) per day for each day’s attendance as a grand juror, and the mileage reimbursement applicable to county employees for each mile actually traveled in attending court as a grand juror.
