§ 504. Appointment and removal of commissioner of jurors. (a) Except
in counties within cities having a population of one million or more,
the county jury board, or a majority thereof, shall appoint a
commissioner of jurors for a term of four years and shall fill any
vacancy occurring in such office in the same manner as an original
appointment. The county jury board may, in its discretion, appoint the
county clerk or other county officer or employee to serve as
commissioner of jurors. A county clerk's term of office as commissioner
shall be coterminus with his term of office as county clerk.

(b) The commissioner shall be removable for cause by the appellate
division of the supreme court in the judicial department embracing the
county, upon written charges and opportunity to be heard after due
notice thereof. If such commissioner is the county clerk, the appellate
division may remove him from the office of commissioner in the same
manner.
