(1) The state court administrator shall use an electronic automated system to compile and maintain a master juror wheel. The wheel shall consist of names, addresses, dates of birth, identifying numbers, and 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 of this article. Jurors receiving cancellations or postponements of juror appearance 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.
