Art. 623.1. Capital cases; transfer of jury

In a case involving a capital offense, upon motion to transfer a jury or on its own motion, if the court determines it is in the interest of justice, the court may, as an alternative to transferring the case to another parish after a change of venue is granted, select a jury in the parish to which venue would otherwise have been transferred, and thereafter, transfer such jury to the court in which the case is pending.
