Description
The State believes that there was a violation of both the letter and intent of Criminal Rule 23(b) in this case. The defendant
should have been personally addressed by the court. United States v. Guerrero-Peralta, 446 F.2d 876 (9th Cir. 1971). The right to a trial by twelve is guaranteed by Article I, Section 11, of the Alaska Constitution, and although
Criminal Rule 23(b) provides for a trial with less than this number, the right is so basic that any waiver should be express,
unequivocal, intelligent and voluntary. Horne v. United States, 264 F.2d 40, cert. den. 79 S. Ct. 1460, 360 U.S. 934, 3 L. Ed. 2d 1549.
