jury histories for prospective jurors taken from the master juror list. Each year, the
master juror wheel shall be emptied and refilled in compliance with the provisions

and service may be replaced on the master juror wheel for the succeeding year and
shall receive new summonses for their new dates in the succeeding year.

(2) In order to more equitably distribute the responsibility for juror
appearance and service throughout the qualified population of each county and to
avoid repeatedly summoning the same individuals for jury appearance and service,
the state court administrator shall implement reasonable procedures to match prior
year records of juror selection, appearance, and service in the state courts with the
prospective juror names included in the master juror wheel. To the extent practical,
the prior juror selection and service records shall be used to prioritize the juror
names in the master juror wheel. To the extent practical, individuals with the least
amount of jury appearances or service in the most recent years shall be summoned
prior to individuals who have appeared or served more recently.
