Section 15-12-126.1. Absence of panels of trial jurors in misdemeanor cases; choosing and summoning make-up panels

Latest version.

On and after July 1, 2012, when the regular panels of trial jurors cannot be furnished to make up panels of the correct number from which to take juries in misdemeanor cases because of the absence of any of such panels, where jurors, or any part of a panel, are engaged in the consideration of a case, the presiding judge may cause the panels to be filled by summoning such numbers of persons who are competent jurors as may be necessary to fill the panels. Such panels shall be used as the regular panels are used. The clerk shall choose and cause to be summoned additional prospective trial jurors.
