information of the persons on the list, such as last name, first name, middle

master list.



(b)  Whoever has custody, possession, or
control of any of the lists used in compiling the master list, shall make the

Case Notes



 



  Selection of jurors under earlier amendments.  17 H. 23; 18
H. 46; 22 H. 618.



  Grand jury not incompetent through omission to apportion list
of persons from different precincts.  29 H. 7.  The mere fact that the trial
jurors drawn from the jury list did not contain percentages of persons of
nativity of the citizenry in the court's jurisdiction did not show that the
list itself violated the jury statute.  118 F.2d 667.  Violation occurs if
there is systematic or arbitrary exclusion of or discrimination between persons
of a particular race.  Id.  Evidence disclosing that the employer entrepreneur
group comprised but about 3.6% of the population of the county but comprised
42% of the grand jury list and that male laborers comprised approximately 79%
of male population of county but 12% of grand jury list established that an
erroneous method had been employed in selecting the grand jury list.  82 F.
Supp. 65, 117, reversed on other grounds.  187 F.2d 860.  Denial of plea in bar
and motion to dismiss indictment upon ground selection was not made without
reference to race, place of nativity, or sex was not erroneous.  45 H. 247, 365
P.2d 460.



  Proportional representation.  103 F. Supp. 1; 105 F. Supp.
727.
