Sec. 24.3. (a) If a person:
(1) is summoned to serve as a juror; and
(2) notifies the person's employer of the jury summons within a reasonable period:
(A) after receiving the jury summons; and
(B) before the person appears for jury service;
the person's employer may not subject the person to any adverse employment action as the result of the person's jury service.

the court shall reschedule the prospective juror's jury service for a date that does not overlap with the jury service of the other employee.
