mechanical or electronic means.

A. In lieu of any other procedure now provided by law, the

judge in charge of court administration in the county may, by order,

adopt a plan for the selection of qualified jurors for jury service

with the aid of mechanical or electronic means and implement such

plan upon its approval by the Supreme Court.

B. Any such plan so adopted shall conform to the following

requirements:

1. A complete plan shall be proposed in writing and submitted

for approval by the Supreme Court.

2. It shall provide a fair, impartial and objective method of

selecting persons for jury service with the aid of mechanical or

electronic equipment.

3. It shall designate the court clerk as the official to be in

charge of the selection process and shall define the duties of the

court clerk.

4. It shall specify that a true and complete written list

showing the names and addresses of the persons summoned to begin

jury service on a particular date shall be filed of record with the

court clerk at least ten (10) days prior to the date such persons

are to begin jury service.

C. In any county where such a plan is adopted, as provided in

this section, the laws relating to the selection of petit jurors by

use of a jury wheel shall not apply. In such counties, a municipal

court, at the option of the municipal judge, may select jurors in

the same manner as provided for by the plan. The municipal court

clerk shall be designated to fulfill the duties provided in the plan

for the district court clerk.
