### sec.24 Revision of list
After the end of the time allowed in the notices to prospective jurors for the return of prospective juror questionnaires, the sheriff must revise the list of prospective jurors.
The revision is made by noting on the list the exclusion from the list of the name of each person—
who, in the sheriff’s opinion—
can not be located within a reasonable time; or
is not qualified for jury service; or
who has been excused from jury service.
The sheriff may make reasonable inquiries to find out whether the name of a person on the list of prospective jurors should be excluded from the list because the person is not qualified for jury service.
