BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI:
SECTION 1. The right of suffrage is hereby fully and completely restored to Lynn Terry of Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, who was disqualified as an elector as a result of his convictions of the crime of grand larceny in 1987 in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, and who was sentenced to serve twenty-four (24) months probation under the supervision of the Department of Corrections. His probation was terminated on February 6, 1989.
