Challenges by the trial counsel shall be presented and decided before those by the accused are offered, unless justice dictates otherwise.
2. If exercise of a challenge for cause reduces the court below the minimum number of members required by NRS 412.304 , all parties shall, notwithstanding NRS 412.342 , either exercise or waive any challenge for cause then apparent against the remaining members of the court before additional members are detailed to the court. However, peremptory challenges must not be exercised at that time.

4. If exercise of a peremptory challenge reduces the court below the minimum number of members required by NRS 412.304 , the parties shall, notwithstanding NRS 412.342 , either exercise or waive any remaining peremptory challenge not previously waived against the remaining members of the court before additional members are detailed to the court.
5. Whenever additional members are detailed to the court and after any challenges for cause against such additional members are presented and decided, each accused and the trial counsel are entitled to one peremptory challenge against members not previously subject to peremptory challenge.
