As amended through November 13, 2023

Rule 34.1 - Juror Orientation

Prospective jurors shall receive an orientation which informs them of the nature of their duties and introduces them to trial procedure and legal terminology, but which does not include anything to be regarded by the jurors as instructions of law to be applied in any case or anything that may prejudice a party or mislead the jurors. This orientation may be accomplished by the use of juror handbooks and by supplementary oral instruction if and to the extent deemed necessary by the court.
