Jury Selection

(a) Voir Dire. The court determines whether the court, the attorneys, or both will conduct voir dire. The court may limit an attorney's examination by time and subject matter. (b) Peremptory Challenges.

Unless ordered otherwise, all parties exercise peremptory challenges alternately, beginning with the plaintiff. Each party is informed, after the exercise of each peremptory challenge, of the identity of each prospective juror peremptorily challenged by each other party. (c) Waiver of Peremptory Challenges. Passing or refusing to exercise a peremptory challenge constitutes a waiver of the right to exercise the challenge.

If a party waives the right to exercise a peremptory challenge, the court exercises it after the parties exercise or waive all other challenges to which they are entitled.
