Sec. 21.
When the jurors have agreed on their verdict they shall deliver the verdict publicly to the municipal court, which shall enter the verdict in the minutes of its proceedings. The jurors shall each be entitled to the same fees as provided by law for jurors sworn in civil cases in a municipal court. In a misdemeanor case, a certificate of service and fees from the municipal judge in whose court the jurors served, countersigned by the prosecuting attorney of the county, and given to each juror, shall authorize the county clerk of the county to draw an order upon the county treasurer for the payment of the fees of each juror.
The fees shall be paid in the same manner as jurors' fees are paid in the circuit court.
