                                  TITLE  19
                              CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
                                  CHAPTER 22
                               CONDUCT OF JURY
    19-2206.  WHEN JURY MAY BE DISCHARGED. Except as provided in the last
section, the jury cannot be discharged after the cause is submitted to them
until they have agreed upon their verdict and rendered it in open court,
unless by consent of both parties entered upon the minutes, or unless, at the
expiration of such time as the court may deem proper, it satisfactorily
appears that there is no reasonable probability that the jury can agree.
