Protections for juror identity

Official statutory text

A. Persons serving as jurors during a trial shall not be asked

or required to give their complete residence address or telephone

number in the presence of the defendant.

B. Names and personal information concerning prospective and

sitting jurors shall not be disclosed to the public outside open

court, except upon order of the court. A request for disclosure of

petit jurors' names and personal information shall be made in

writing directly to the presiding judge or chief judge, or any

district judge acting as his or her designee. The court shall order

juror names and personal information to be kept confidential unless

the interests of justice require otherwise.

jurors may be provided to the attorneys of record after the general

panel jurors have been selected and summoned, unless otherwise

directed by the court. The names and information will be provided

in written form only, hereafter referred to as "the jury list". The

attorneys shall not share the jury list or information contained in

the jury list except as necessary for purposes of jury selection.

Following jury selection, the attorneys shall return the original

jury lists and any copies to the court. Counsel shall be under a

continuing duty to protect the confidentiality of juror information.

D. The names of grand jurors shall not be maintained in any

public record or otherwise disclosed to the public except upon an

order of the court issued on a showing that exceptional

circumstances have created a demonstrated need for disclosure.
