D. Mont. L.R. 47.1
Examining Jurors
(a) Confidentiality of Juror Information. Other than use at trial, any
disclosure of juror information must be limited to parties and counsel involved in
the case and persons consulted about the composition of the jury. Those persons
must take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of the information.
(b) Juror Questionnaires. Case specific juror questionnaires may be
allowed at the discretion of the presiding judge and under such terms and
conditions as ordered by the presiding judge.
(c) Voir Dire. The court will conduct voir dire unless it orders otherwise.
The court may permit limited voir dire by the parties, following the voir dire
conducted by the court.
(d) Electronic Record. The clerk’s list of trial jurors’ names and
information must be sealed if filed in the record of the case. If filed in the record of
the case, the list of trial jurors’ names, juror information, and any voir dire
transcript containing jurors’ names or other identifying information must be sealed.
If a prisoner requests a transcript of voir dire, the court will issue an order
describing the terms of the prisoner’s access to it.
