The state or defendant may challenge an individual prospective juror before the juror is sworn to try the cause; except that the court may, for good cause, permit a challenge to be made after the juror is sworn, but before any evidence is presented.
FL. R. Crim. P. 3.310
Committee Notes.
1968 Adoption. Save for the heading and for the inclusion of the phrase, “for cause or peremptorily,” the suggested rule is a transcription of the provisions of section 913.04, Florida Statutes.
1972 Amendment. Prior rule amended only by deleting some language felt by the committee to be superfluous.
