A.  The regular term of a multicounty grand jury shall be
eighteen (18) months unless an order for discharge is entered
earlier:
1.  by the court after the multicounty grand jury determines by
majority vote that its business is completed; or
2.  by the court, on its own motion or on the motion of the
Attorney General, upon a determination that termination is in the
public interest.
B.  The regular term of a multicounty grand jury may be extended
by the presiding judge for a specified time period upon a verified
petition by the Attorney General stating that an extension is
necessary to conclude a grand jury inquiry begun prior to the
expiration of the regular term.  No jury so extended shall serve for

more than twenty-four (24) months, unless permission is granted by
the Supreme Court.
