to special grand juries.
[H 257]

Approved February 23, 1952

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 19-124 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted
as follows:

§ 19-124. A special grand jury may be ordered at any time by a
circuit court of a county or corporation, or corporation or hustings court
of a corporation, or the judge thereof in vacation. The jurors shall be
summoned from a list furnished by the judge. When a grand jury, regular
or special, has been discharged, the court, during the term, may impanel
another grand jury, which may be a special grand jury. A special grand
jury may be summoned for and impanelled at a special term of the court
as well as at a regular term. In the event a special grand jury has been
impanelled to investigate any given condition or conditions, and has not
completed its hearings before the end of the term of court at which it was
impanelled, such special grand jury may, on order of the court, be con-
tinued from time to time and other grand juries, regular or special, may
be impanelled by the court for the hearing of other matters.
