Why are convicted felons exempt from jury duty?

Under California law, a convicted felon is disqualified from serving on a jury until and unless his or her civil rights have been restored. Restoring one's civil rights is no small task, however, as it involves one being granted a Certificate of Rehabilitation or being granted a pardon from the Governor.
