Empanelling new jury for new case
The names of the persons drawn as jurors shall be marked on the list provided for in section 18 , and the cards with the numbers corresponding to such names shall be kept apart by themselves until all the cards in the box have been drawn: Provided that— (a) if any case is brought on to be tried before the jury in any other case have brought in their verdict, it shall be lawful for the court to order another jury to be drawn from the residue of the said cards for such trial; and (b) where no objection is made on behalf of the plaintiff or prosecutor or on behalf of the defendant or person accused, it shall be lawful for the court to try any case with the same jury who have previously tried or been drawn to try any other case, but it may order the name of any person on such jury, whom both parties may consent to withdraw or who may be justly challenged or excused by the court, to be set aside and another number corresponding to a name to be drawn from the box.
