§ 16-10-102 — When jury panel exhausted

In all criminal cases where the panel
of jurors is exhausted by challenge or otherwise, and whether any juror has been
selected and sworn or not, the court may order the issuance of a venire for any
number of jurors not exceeding twenty-four, returnable forthwith, out of which
persons so ordered to be summoned it is lawful to impanel a jury for the trial of any
criminal case. Should the jurors thus summoned be insufficient, by reason of
challenges or otherwise, to form an impartial jury, the court may make further
orders for additional jurors, returnable forthwith, until a full jury is obtained.
