What is a sour beer, and which to try Originally, beer was sour almost by accident. Then technology fixed that. Now, sour beers are coming back, on purpose. Check out this story on burlingtonfreepress.com: http://bfpne.ws/1tkq4bX.
Harris County Commissioners Court opted not to pay $6 starting in 2011 as a cost-cutting measure. So jury pay went from $40 to $28 in 2011. The state added $2 more in September 2012, bringing it to $30. Jury pay now rises to $40 a day, with $34 coming from the state and $6 from the county.
If employers do pay, they have the right to require employees to remit to them the fees received for jury service. Prospective jurors are paid the amount mandated by the State Legislature, $15.00 per day and $0.34 per mile, one way for the second day of service and every day thereafter.
