Text
(a) Communication Not Allowed. No party or attorney (or any of their employees or agents) may communicate or attempt to communicate off the record: (1) with a member of the venire from which the jury will be selected; or (2) with a juror. (b) Exceptions. The court may allow a party or attorney to communicate with jurors after the trial if all other parties are given notice.
