S.D. Codified Laws § 23-14-3
Current through the 2024 Legislative Session
When the coroner has notice of the dead body of a person supposed to have died by unlawful means, found or being in his county, he shall issue a warrant to the sheriff of his county, requiring him to summon forthwith three electors having the qualifications of jurors of the county to appear before the coroner at a time and place named in the warrant. When the services of such sheriff cannot be conveniently procured, then the coroner may summon such electors from the bystanders, and any elector impaneled as juror shall be allowed the same fees as in cases before the circuit court.
