activein force · 2024-02-01 – presentact-effective-date

(A) Before and during trial, no attorney, party or representative of either, may contact,

converse or otherwise communicate with a juror or potential juror on any subject,

whether pertaining to the case or not.

(B) No attorney, party, or representative of either may interrogate a juror after the

verdict has been returned without prior approval of the presiding judge. Approval

of the presiding judge may be sought only by application made by counsel orally

in open Court or upon written motion which states the grounds and the purpose of

the interrogation. If a post-verdict interrogation of one or more of the members of

the jury should be approved, the scope of the interrogation and other appropriate

limitations upon the interrogation will be determined by the presiding judge prior

to the interrogation.
