Jurors in the municipal court shall be selected pursuant to this

section under the same terms and conditions as are provided for by

law for the district courts, or in the alternative, pursuant to

Section 18.1 of Title 38 of the Oklahoma Statutes. Upon written

request of the judge of the municipal court for a stated number of

jurors to the chief judge of the appropriate district court, it

shall be the duty of the clerk of the district court to draw from

the jury wheel a requested number of jurors in the same manner as is

provided by law for the district court until the number requested,

who from their addresses appear to reside within the corporate

limits of the municipality, is drawn, and to prepare a list of names

drawn and certify such list to the judge of the municipal court. On

completion of the draw, the clerk shall immediately return to the

jury wheel all names drawn which are not placed on the certified

list. The judge of the municipal court shall make written request

to the chief judge of the district court for a stated number of

additional jurors if, after allowance of claimed statutory

exemptions, the listed number is found to be insufficient. Summons

of the prospective jurors shall be issued as set out by ordinance,

and may be served in person by the chief of police or any member of

the police force of the municipality, or may be served by the clerk

of the municipal court by mail.
